Weather Information

What You Should Know About Weather

If threatening weather is nearby, the National Weather Service may broadcast a 10 second
alert tone. This tone will be heard through the CB, even if the CB/WX Control is in the CB
mode or the unit is turned off.
This enables you to monitor CB frequencies and still be warned by the National Weather
Service Emergency Alert. When you hear the alert, press the CB/WX/PA button in the WX
mode. You will then be able to hear the Weather Warning Broadcast.
Your 29 LX has a special auto squelch circuit for weather transmission which disables
your squelch control.
NOTE: If you wish to receive a listing of NOAA 'Weather Radio Transmitter locations,
contact your nearest National Weather Service Office.
Service Office, or write to:
National Weather Service
(Attn: W/OM11) NOAA
Silver Springs, MD 20910.
For ideal weather reception use a dual band antenna (center load/baseload).
