Radio Shack PRO-94 - SAME Signal Detection Updating

39
When the scanner receives a SAME coded signal,
ALERT
flashes and an associated “L” code (which indi-
cates the severity of the alert) appears, as well. The
scanner remains on the weather channel and the audio
turns on so you can hear the weather broadcast.
The scanner displays one of the following codes to indi-
cate the alert level.
L1
: Warning
L2
: Watch
L3
: Statement
-----
: Non-emergency
In addition to weather alerts, the scanner also receives
test and other event information. See “NWR-SAME
Code Detection Tests” on Page 40.
SAME Signal Detection Updating
When the scanner receives a SAME-coded signal, it re-
tains information about the most recent alert until you

code,
ALERT
flashes. To verify the specific alert level
(L1, L2, or L3) press
SVC (E)
to select the weather
search mode. Press

to clear the alert.
