Use Weather Radio

Available for the Rino 530HCx only, the Weather Radio

provides a constant update of the weather conditions. The

Weather Alert feature further enhances the Weather Radio

by automatically detecting any weather alert tones if you

are not actively transmitting or receiving with the radio.
To access the Weather Radio, select the Weather button

and press enter or select the Radio page Option Menu

button. Press enter when Use Weather Radio is selected

to turn on the weather radio. You can also access the

Weather Radio through the Shortcuts Menu.
When the Weather Radio is on, a “Ready To Receive

Weather” message appears if no signal is present or the

squelch is set too high. A “Receiving Weather” message

is shown if weather is being received, if squelch is too

low, or monitor is on. The Weather Radio has a separate

squelch setting from the FRS/GMRS radio.
Change the Weather Radio channel in the same manner as

changing the FRS/GMRS radio channel. There are seven

Weather Radio channels (1 through 7) available.
