Weather Scan
Start a normal weather scan. In normal weather scan mode, the scanner does not react to
alert tones on weather channels.
Weather Alert
Choose how you want the scanner to filter any alerts it detects on the weather channels:
Alert Only
The scanner responds to all alert tones detected on the weather channels, regardless of
region or hazard level. When an alert is detected, the scanner sounds an alert siren and
opens squelch on the weather channel.
