Locking Out Undefined (New or
Commercial) Weather Descriptions
The NWS might occasionally broadcast several types
of weather information intended for commercial or
other non-private use. This information could include,
for example, messages intended for automated
weather services (such as those used by radio or TV
stations). Your Weatheradio’s memory does not con-
tain a specific, corresponding description for the sig-
nals related to these
commercial
weather types.
Additionally, your Weatheradio is designed to recog-
nize all common weather alert types currently used by
the NWS. The NWS could, however, eventually cre-
ate and broadcast
new
alert types (for which the
Weatheradio’s memory does not contain a specific,
corresponding description).
If your Weatheradio receives a signal for a
new
alert
type, it is preset (if the alert function is turned on) to
display the alert description
TUNE
TV
and sound a si-
ren alert. It is not set to alert you when it receives a
commercial
alert type.
Depending on your preference, you can follow these
steps to change the way the Weatheradio responds
to new or commercial weather alert broadcasts.
