D Weather alert function
U.S.A. version only
NOAA broadcast stations transmit weather alert tones before important weather announcements. When the weather
alert function is turned ON, the selected weather channel
is monitored every 5 sec. for the announcement. When the
alert signal is detected, the “ALT” and the WX channel indications are displayed alternately and sounds a beep tone until
the transceiver is operated. The previously selected (used)
weather channel is checked periodically during standby or
while scanning.

NOTE: While receiving a signal (on a frequency other
than the weather alert ON frequency), the receiving signal
or audio will be interrupted momentarily every 5 sec. (approx.) in the case that the alert function is turned ON. This
symptom is caused by the WX alert function. To cancel
these symptoms, set the weather alert item OFF in set

To prevent accidental prolonged transmission, etc.,
the transceiver has a time-out timer. This timer cuts a
transmission OFF after 1, 3, 5 or 10 min. of continuous
transmission. This timer can be cancelled (default).
The transceiver has display backlighting with a 5 sec. timer for
night time operation. The display backlighting can be turned
ON continuously, turned AUTO or turned OFF, if desired.
