INTRODUCTION
Your RadioShack SAME Weatheradio represents
the latest generation of weather alert technology.
As soon as you connect it to power, your
Weatheradiois ready to monitorweather conditions
in your area, providing unobtrusive, round-the-clock
protection for you and your family or business. With
the supplied software, you can even connect the
Weatheradio to and use it with your personal
computer. Your Weatheradio uses SAME (Specific
Area Message Encoding) circuitry to provide more
complete information about weather conditions in
your immediate area, letting you avoid hearing
alerts for geographical areas that do not interest
you.
SAME Operation — you can program up to 15
different location codes into the Weatheradio’s
memory, so the Weatheradio sounds an alert only
whena weather emergencyis declared in your local
area (or one nearby).
7 Weather Channels — let you select the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
weather broadcast in your area.
Auto Channel Scan — lets you set the
Weatheradio so it automatically receives the
strongest weather broadcast in your area.
Remote Operation Using Your Personal
Computer— you can connect the Weatheradio to
your computer’s USB port, then use your computer
to program your Weatheradio and view weather
alert messages received by your Weatheradio.
Weather Alert with Voice/Tone Selection —lets
you set the Weatheradio so it sounds an alert then
automatically turns on the weather (voice)
broadcast or sounds an alert for 5 minutes and
displays a description of the alert.
2
Weather Alert Status — indicators on the front o f
the Weatheradio light, showingyou the type of alert.
12-Character Liquid Crystal Display —the
Weatheradio’s large, easy-to-read display clearly
shows a description of the type of alert in progress
(such as a tornado warning, flood watch, and so
on), setup and programming information, the
currently selected alert type and FIPS mode, and
notifications about how the Weatheradio is working.
Missed Alert Reminder — so you do not miss
important weather alerts, the Weatheradio sounds
tones every 10 seconds while an alert is active.
External Alert Terminals — let you connect an
optional external controller system (such as a Plug
’n Power
or X-10system) to the Weatheradio,
then set that system to indicate an alert based on
signals received by the Weatheradio. This lets you
hear or see the alert in a location (such as the
garage) that might be some distance from where
you installed the Weatheradio.
External Antenna Connector — lets you connect
an optional external antenna to the Weatheradio to
improve reception in remote areas.

HOW YOUR
WEATHERADIO WORKS
Traditional weather radios simply receive the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA)weatherbroadcast(usually within a 50-mile
radius),then soundan alarm if anyemergencycode
was transmitted along with the broadcast. This
means that people who live near an affected area
are often alerted, even when their own area is
unaffected. Eventually, these excess warnings
could cause someone to ignore a potentially lifesaving weather warning.
In 1994, NOAA began broadcasting coded signals
called SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding)
codes along with their standard weather
broadcasts. These codes identify the type of
emergency and the specific geographic area (such
as a county or parish and one or more separate
areas within a county called a subcounty) affected
by the emergency. Your Weatheradio receives,
interprets,anddisplaysinformationabout thecodes
so you can determine if the emergency might affect
your area. Only SAME-compatible weather
radios (such as this one) are able to take
advantage of this technology. Each SAME alert
includes a FIPS (Federal Information Processing
System) code that identifies a specific geographic
area (defined by the National Weather Service).
Your Weatheradio can be programmedto sound an
alert only when a weather emergency is declared in
that area. This helps you more efficiently track the
weather conditions in and around your area.
Your Weatheradio displays weather alert
informationinthefollowingways.
CAUTION
The National Weather
Service (NWS) uses
sophisticated models to
determine an alert’s
effective time; however, the
end of an alert does not
necessarily mean that the
related weather emergency
is over.

WHEN A WEATHER ALERT OCCURS
When the Weatheradio receives a weather alert, it
sounds an alert (siren or beep), the alert’s
description and duration appear, and an indicator
on the front of the Weatheradio lights.
The alert descriptionsyourWeatheradiocan display
are based on a list of specific weather alert types
published by the NWS. For a list of all the alert
descriptionsthat your Weatheradio can display, see
“NWS Weather Alert Descriptions” on Page 26.

If programmed, receives all alerts for
a county, including subcounty alerts.
If programmed, receives only subcounty alerts that match t he entered
digit and all-county alerts that start

Ô
UNDERSTANDING FIPS CODES
For the purpose of broadcasting weather
information,the NWS has divided the United States
into regions by state, county and subcounty (or
8
parish, where applicable) then assigned a 6-digit
FIPS code to identify each county, subcounty, or
parish. For example, the code for Tarrant County,
Texas, is 048439. The first digit in a FIPS code
identifies the subcounty (if any), the next two digits
identify the state, and the last three digits identify
the county or parish.
Your Weatheradio can receive all SAME alert
signals broadcast within about a 50-mile radius of
where you install it. To receive SAME alerts and
broadcasts about weather occurring only in
particular counties within that area, you can
program up to 15 FIPS codes into the
Weatheradio’smemory. This lets you avoid hearing
alerts that pertain to areas within a 50-mile radius
but not within your immediate vicinity.
To get all alerts for your county, enter
digit of the FIPS code. To only be alerted to allcounty notices and notices for your particular
subcounty, enter your subcounty’s code (
0 as the first
1–9).

Accessories” on Page 29).
TESTING THE WEATHERADIO’S TONE
For your Weatheradio to be effective, you must
place it where it can receive an emergency alert
broadcast and where you can hear its alert tone.
In the United States, the NWS broadcasts a test
alert every week on Wednesday between 11 AM
and 1 PM, so you can be sure your Weatheradio is
operating. To find out the s pecific test schedule in
your area, contact your local NOAA or NWS office.

The Weatheradio constantly monitors the channel you set
it to, even while it is sounding a continuous alert. Each time
the Weatheradio receives a signal on the channel, it
pauses very briefly to compare the signal against those
stored in its memory. If the Weatheradio pauses frequently
(depending on how often it receives a signal), it might
make the continuous alert tone sound intermittent. This i s
