Normal Mode with Weather Alert Watch
If you activate Weather Alert Watch while
operating in Normal mode, the radio checks the most
recently used weather channel every seven
seconds. If it detects a weather or other hazard alert,
it will switch to that weather channel. (If you are actively
transmitting, the radio waits until you finish your transmission
before checking the weather channel.)
Normal Mode with Triple Watch or Dual Watch
If you activate Triple Watch while operating in Normal mode, the radio checks channels 16
and 9 every few seconds; with Dual Watch turned on, the radio only checks channel 16.
The radio will not check channels 16 or 9 while you are actively transmitting; it waits until
your transmission is finished and then checks the channels.
