You cannot transmit while in Weather mode.
When the radio detects a WX Alert signal, it sounds a
siren tone three times. Press any button to turn off the
tone.

Weather mode with Weather Alert Watch

Because Weather mode already monitors the weather
channels, you don't need Weather Alert Watch to check
the weather channel every seven seconds. If you activate
Weather Alert Watch while operating in Weather mode,
it operates as a type of "sleep mode;" the radio stays on
the weather channel and mutes the speaker. If an alert
is detected, the radio sounds an alert tone and turns the
speaker back on. This mode is very useful when you
are anchoring for the night but want to keep informed of
hazards.
