Suggestion
Make sure the power adapter is securely plugged
into back of the weather radio and into the wall
outlet.
Make sure batteries are installed in case of a
power failure.
Check VOLUME control to ensure
volume is turned up to an audible level.
Ensure the telescoping antenna is up and fully
extended.
If you are using an external antenna, ensure it is
connected properly.
Ensure the radio is set to the weather channel in
use in your area.
Contact the broadcasting station to
ensure they are presently broadcasting.
If in a metal structure, make sure you are close
to a window.
If in a weak signal area, you will need an
external antenna.
Check to see that you have programmed in the
correct S.A.M.E. code(s).
Check that the tower nearest you is
broadcasting.
