INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the JX-M133 AM/FM/WB band radio. Before operating the unit, please read these instructions thoroughly and retain them for future reference.
The JX-M133 is designed to receive National Weather Service (NWS) broadcasts, by the Department of Commerce’s National Oceanic and Aerospace Administration (NOAA) which provides information about weather conditions, forecasts and hazard information 24 hours a day as a public service.
JX-M133 receives all seven NOAA channels; it has an automatic alert system; in the event of a special warning broadcast, the receiver will automatically activate along with a loud tone; a flashing LED indicator; and an “alert” message on the LCD.
This unit also has an “S.A.M.E Digital Weather/Hazard Alert” feature, providing you with constant monitoring of your localized NWS broadcast. It allows you to receive only messages for the areas concerning you.
For up-to-date information on NOAA and weather frequencies used in your area, check the NOAA National Weather Service website at: www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr.
