37Advanced FeaturesWeather (T7200)You can’t change the weather, but you can be prepared for it when you take your Motorola Talkabout T7200 radio with you. That's because it tunes into broadcasts by the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio and Environment Canada Weatheradio. You can listen to a Weather Channel or you can even set your radio to alert you to emergency weather broadcasts that interrupt routine broadcasts.Both NOAA and Environment Canada have transmitters located throughout the United States and Canada, respectively. These transmitters broadcast watches, forecasts, and other information 24 hours a day.Note:  Service may not be available in all areas.  Check with your local weather office for frequency and details, or visit www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr, (Canada: www.msc-smc.ec.gc.ca/cd/factsheets/wxradio). The use of the NOAA logo does not provide an endorsement or implied endorsement by NOAA's National Weather Service nor does the use of the Weatheradio logo provide an endorsement or implied endorsement by Environment Canada.Whenever you listen to a Weather Channel, you cannot use your radio for two-way communications. However, a weather alert will notify you while the radio is in two-way mode (if you have enabled weather alert) and the radio is On but not transmitting or receiving.Turning On Weather Channel ReceptionTo turn on Weather Channel Reception, press and hold G. To turn off Weather Channel Reception and return to two-way mode, press and hold G again.6864110R94.book  Page 37  Friday, February 8, 2002  2:34 PM
Advanced Features38Setting the Weather ChannelYour radio receives eight frequencies. See the Weather Frequency Chart on page 43. for a complete list. •After turning on the weather broadcast, press [ or ] to select the strongest Channel.As with two-way radio reception, Weather Channel Reception depends on how close you are to a transmitter and whether you are indoors or outdoors. Also, because Weather Channels are transmitted without Codes, they may contain static or noise.Note:  The Talkabout T7200 two-way radios are designed to be two-way radios primarily, with the added utility of features such as Weather Alert. The radio uses the same circuitry for both two-way radio and weather alert receptions. Therefore, you can miss a weather alert while you are engaged in two-way communication (either transmitting or receiving). To ensure that you do not miss a weather alert, leave the radio in the Weather Mode.Note:  In some isolated areas, it may not be possible to receive Weather Channel Transmissions.To Set Weather Alert:•Switch to weather mode, •press \ once, and •press [ or ] to select Y (On).•If you activate Weather Alert and return to two-way mode, owill display. 6864110R94.book  Page 38  Friday, February 8, 2002  2:34 PM
