Frequently Asked Questions

What local weather radio station do I listen to?

Seven frequencies in the VHF Public Service band are used by all NOAA Weather Radio stations to transmit their signals: 162.400 megahertz (MHz), 162.425 MHz, 162.450 MHz, 162.475 MHz, 162.500 MHz, and 162.525 MHz.

What’s wrong with my weather radio?

The most likely reason for the issue is that you either improperly programmed your receiver or that it had its programming lost or altered without your awareness. Check that your receiver is tuned to a NWR transmitter that transmits alerts for your county using these maps or this webpage, which lists counties by state.

What qualities should a weather radio have?

Search for models with an audible alarm feature. You won’t miss a warning because these radios generate a loud tone when warnings are received (even while the device is off). Forecasts and alerts may only be received on Weather Band Radios when they are set to a specific weather station.

When is the next NOAA update?

All tropical or subtropical cyclones in the Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, and Central Pacific are subject to public advisories. Public warnings for tropical cyclones in the Atlantic are typically released every six hours at 5:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 5:00 PM, and 11:00 PM EDT (or 4:00 AM EST, 10:00 AM EST, 4:00 PM EST, and 10:00 PM EST).

Why does the check reception message on my weather radio keep appearing?

In order to reassure viewers that their weather radio is operating properly, there is a ten-day missed test alarm. NOTICE: This radio’s predecessor, the Midland WR-100, did not emit an audible beep. However, unless it is reset using the same procedures as above, it will show the words “CHECK RECEPTION.”

Why is my NOAA radio always beeping?

The National Weather Service is expected to test the Midland WR-120 desktop NOAA weather radio once every seven days. The radio emits one beep every ten minutes if ten days pass without receiving a test.

Why are my weather radio’s LEDs flickering throughout?

When the radio has gone more than ten days without a Required Weekly Test (RWT), the unit may begin to flash its lights and occasionally beep.

Does one need a weather radio?

In the event that the power goes out for an extended period of time, one of the main reasons you need a weather radio in your home (and even when you are outside) is to keep you updated (an hour or more).

In an emergency, what kind of radio do I need?

Emergency officials view hand crank radios as being crucial components of an emergency kit. The top emergency crank radios offer illumination, sustained power, and NOAA weather warnings. These radios can be a ray of hope when you need it most in a time when we are essentially powerless without cell phones and the internet.

What does the weather radio term “check op” mean?

When the radio has run continuously for seven days without receiving a SAME transmission, the event “CHECK OP” is shown. You can get rid of this notice by turning the radio on and off again. If this message keeps coming on the radio, something is wrong.
