TELESCOPING ANTENNA: 
For AM/FM and weather band radio, fully extend the telescoping 
antenna to receive a steady strong signal. Place the radio near a 
window if you are indoors for best reception. 
 
WEATHER BAND RADIO:  
The IC Chip supports weather band reception from 162.4 to 162.55 
MHz. The highly integrated IC Chip meets NOAA specification, 
receives all seven NOAA specified frequencies, implements 
narrowband FM de-emphasis, and supports 1050 Hz alert tone 
detection. In addition, the IC Chip provides advanced features not 
available on conventional radios, such as an AFC and a dynamic 
channel bandwidth filter. In WB mode the radio will continually 
broadcasts weather radio. Fully extend telescoping antenna. 
 

Channel 5: 162.500MHz 

Channel 2: 162.425MHz 

Channel 6: 162.525MHz 

Channel 3: 162.450MHz 

Channel 7: 162.550MHz 

Channel 4: 162.475MHz 

 

 

STANDBY:  
When in WB hold the MODE button for 2 seconds to enter WB 
Standby. When in Standby the red LED on top of the radio will flash 
slowly (every 5 seconds). 
 
ALERTS:



 

The top LED light and red LCD backlight will flash quickly 
(every 2 seconds) for 5 minutes. 



 

The volume will increase to level 16 for 5 minutes so you

VOLUME buttons to adjust as needed. 



 

While alert is sounding for 5 minutes, press and release the 
MODE button to place radio back to WB standby.  



 

Radio automatically returns to WB standby after 5 minutes. 

 
AM RADIO: 
The highly integrated IC Chip supports worldwide AM band reception 
from 520 to 1710 kHz using a digital low-IF architecture with a 
minimum number of external components and no manual alignment 
required. This digital low-IF architecture allows for high-precision 
filtering offering excellent selectivity and SNR with minimum variation   
across the AM band.
