The NWR radio channels work in the same way as a
regular radio channel. All of the NWR transmission
stations operate on 1 of 7 frequencies.

The WR103N labels each frequency as a channel (A-G).
Once the radio frequency for a region has been selected,
the WR103N will receive voice and code information
from that station. The radio channel information is located
on the upper left hand corner of the LCD.

To change to radio channel:
1.

In any of the time displays, press and hold CHANNEL
for 2 seconds.

2.

Press   or   to switch between various channels.

3.

When the appropriate channel has been selected,
press MODE to confirm and return to the Clock-
Display mode.

SAME county codes are required to receive weather and
environmental information, and need to be entered into
the WR103N. Up to 6 specific SAME codes can be
entered into 6 display fields.

The system can only alert the user to weather or

warning information after SAME county-code information
has been entered and enabled.

When the county code display is first entered, the user
will see a display field providing the option of selecting all
(ALL) or none [----] of the county codes. Selecting ALL
will set the unit so all of the warnings and weather
messages from a specified channel can be received. If
none [----] is selected the unit will receive warning or
weather information only from the specific regions that
have been specified with respective county codes.

It is recommended to select a SAME code field

between (1-6) and then enter a specific code for that
field. Selecting ALL will result in the unit giving warnings
for regions that are not relevant to the user. These
regions are quite large and can encompass about 5,000
square miles (13 sq km).

6 display fields permit up to 6 county codes to be entered.
The user can select less than 6 codes by leaving the
unused display fields empty.
