Adjust your Weather Radio for the weather frequency for your

local area as follows:

Go to the internet web site of NOAA Weather Radio - County by

Note the frequency for your local area. Find the channel number

that corresponds to your frequency. Turn on the WR-300 unit.

Press and release the “MENU” button. Press the “UP” arrow

until “WEATHER CHANNEL” is displayed. (This will

temporarily switch the WR-300 from standby to listen for

Weather Transmissions.)

To set the frequency channel. Press and release “SELECT” to

make the channel display flash, then press the “UP” button until

the channel of your National Weather Radio station shows on the

display. You should now hear the voice of the broadcast. If you

find there is more than one broadcast station in your area, be sure

that station will broadcast your county code. To confirm this

listen to the broadcast associated with the weekly test. During the

broadcast they will give a list of counties covered by the

transmitter.
