Weather Alert Signal
In the event of a major storm or other weather
condition requiring vessels at sea or on other bodies
of water to be notified, NOAA broadcasts a 1050 Hz
tone that receivers such as your CobraMarine
radio can detect and warn you of a Weather Alert
condition. When the Weather Alert signal is sent
on the weather channel you last used, your radio
will switch from Standby mode to that weather
channel. You will not hear the tone signal, but
you will hear the weather alert message. The
Weather Alert icon can be turned On or Off by
pressing the Mode button.
