Monitoring Weather Channels
There are ten weather channels which
provide continual broadcasts of area weather
information as provided by the National
Weather Service. Typically, only the first seven
channels are actively used.
To monitor weather channels:
Weather Alert
The Weather Alert Feature can be activated
to briefly monitor for a weather alert tone
(every 5 seconds). You can choose a weather
channel to monitor, activate the "WX Alert"
feature then resume regular use of the radio.
When a weather alert signal is detected the
"WX ALERT" wording on the display will flash,
and after an alert tone, the VHF 725 will
automatically access the weather channel. It
will increase the volume to mid-range, if set
lower, and allow you to hear severe weather
information.
