6.8.1 NOAA WEATHER ALERT
In the event of extreme weather disturbances such as storms and hurricanes,
NOAA sends a “weather alert” consisting of a 1050 Hz tone, followed by weather
reports on the weather channels.
When a “weather alert” is received on a weather channel, the transceiver emits
a beep tone. Press the
[
WX
]
key to stop the beep tone and listen to the weather
reports.
NOTE
Four options for the Weather Alert feature are available, refer to section
“8.9 WEATHER ALERT” for details.
6.8.2 NOAA WEATHER ALERT TESTING
In the event of a major storm or other appreciable weather condition requiring
vessels at sea (or other bodies of water) to be notified, the NOAA (National
Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) broadcasts a 1050 Hz tone
which the HX850S can detect and alert you of pending storm warnings (refer
to section “6.8.1 NOAA WEATHER ALERT” for a discussion of how to use this
feature). The 1050 Hz tone, when detected, will produce a loud beep in the
speaker of the HX850S, to signal that a Weather Alert Broadcast is being re-
ceived.
In order to test this system, NOAA broadcasts the 1050 Hz tone every Wednes-
day sometime between 11 AM and 1 PM local time. You may use this opportu-
nity to test your HX850S periodically to confirm that the Weather Alert feature
is working, or for training crew members on how to configure the HX850S to
receive the NOAA Weather Alerts.
