1. Setting the Specific Area Message Encoding (S.A.M.E.) location
Both NOAA and EAS use S.A.M.E. technology to identify locations. The WX-268
features a built-in database of over 3,000 county locations in the United States identified
by NOAA. Your Public Alert
TM
 radio is programmed at the factory to receive all the alerts
issued in a given county. This may include alerts that do not affect you. Selecting your
S.A.M.E. location can reduce unnecessary alerts.
To select your S.A.M.E. location, simply select your state, county and county
subdivision at the menu prompts as described below.
To set your SAME location:
1.  Press and hold the PROG key until SET DATE/TIME is
displayed on the screen.
