INTRODUCTION

Thank you for selecting the Oregon ScientiﬁcTM Desktop Emergency Alert Radio (WR608). This device operates on the same radio frequencies used by the National Weather Radio (NWR) and can send you NOAA alert messages to warn you about weather and other environmental dangers. Equipped with digital clock and daily alarms, this weather radio is a practical and useful addition to any home.

Keep this manual handy as you use your new product. It contains practical step-by-step instructions, as well as technical speciﬁcations and warnings you should know.

ABOUT THE NATIONAL WEATHER RADIO SYSTEM

The National Weather Service (NWS) is an agency within the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that operates a nationwide network of radio stations known as the NOAA Weather Radio (NWR). The NWR radio system broadcasts warning information for all types of hazards, both natural and technological. Working in conjunction with the Emergency Alert System (EAS), NWR is an all-in-one hazards radio network and is considered to be the single source of all comprehensive weather and emergency information.

A nationwide network, the NWR consists of more than 800 stations in the United States, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands and US Paciﬁc Territories. Broadcasts are designed to meet local needs. Routine programming is repeated every few minutes and consists of local forecast, regional conditions and marine forecasts.

Additional information, including river stages and climatic data, is also provided. During emergencies, these routine broadcasts are interrupted to report speciﬁc warnings.

NOTE When the radio is set to NOAA ON, Standby or Mute, it will continually search for a NOAA signal.

NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

MESSAGE CODES USED BY THE NWR

When the NWR airs urgent warnings, a digital code known as Speciﬁc Area Message Encoding (SAME) is included as part of the message. This coding system contains speciﬁc information including the localized geographical area affected and the expiration time of the message. The WR608 retrieves and interprets SAME code messages and alerts the user. When SAME codes for a speciﬁc region have been entered into the unit, the unit alerts the user to

relevant warning information for the speciﬁed region. Once alerted, a voice broadcast can be heard.

SET UP RADIO TO RECEIVE NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

To receive a NOAA alert message, press NOAA to set the radio to one of the following options:

• Radio ON [ ]: The radio is ON and voice

messages can be heard continuously.

• Radio Standby [ ]: The radio is in Standby and will

switch to ON when a NOAA alert message is received.

• Radio Mute [ ]: The radio is in Standby with the

sound turned OFF. NOAA alert messages can be viewed but not heard. Switch the radio ON to hear messages.

• Radio OFF: The radio is turned OFF and will not

respond to NOAA alert messages.

Turning the radio to Standby, Mute or OFF will help to save power.

FINDING LOCAL CHANNELS & SAME CODES

The codes are subject to change. Therefore, to ensure successful operation you must obtain the most appropriate, up-to-date NWR radio channels and SAME codes for a speciﬁc county or region, from the contact details listed below.

To contact the NWS by telephone:

1. Phone 1-888-NWR-SAME (1-888-697-7263).

2. Follow prompts through a simple voice menu.

To obtain NWS radio channels and SAME codes on the internet:

1. Locate www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/indexnw.htm

2. Click the State for which information is needed.

For example, clicking on “Montana” will give a list of information relevant to the State of Montana including the names of counties, SAME codes, NWR transmitter locations, the frequency of the transmitter, the strength of the signal in WATTS, and any remarks as applicable.

Example of the ﬁrst 10 county radio channels and SAME codes for Montana.

RECEPTION TEST

The fact that you can get clear voice reception does not guarantee that an emergency alert will trigger your unit’s alert tone. To test actual reception, your unit must receive a test or emergency alert signal broadcast.

The National Weather Service (NWS) broadcasts a test

N E

alert every week on Wednesday between 10AM and 12PM (noon). To receive the test message make sure that your radio

is set to NOAA ON, NOAA Standby or NOAA Mute

mode, that a Channel

has been selected and a SAME code

programmed in.

To ﬁnd out the speciﬁc test schedule in your area, contact your

local National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

(NOAA)

or National Weather Service (NWR) ofﬁce. These ofﬁces are usually listed in the telephone book under “US Government”.

you have any questions regarding alarm tests or to verify

a test was conducted, contact the programming ofﬁce of

your local NOA

A Weather Radio station.

REMEMBER For your system to be effective, you must place the emergency radio in a location where it can receive an emergency alert signal, you can hear its siren, and see its ﬂashing indicator lights.
