30 Ray49E Marine VHF Radio
Weather Alert Operation (If Available)
NOAA also broadcasts continuous severe weather alerts as needed. You can set
your Ray49E to notify you when such an alert is issued. Press and hold the
CLEAR
key to enter weather mode. Then, press and hold the
CLEAR key again to enable

When the severe weather alert tone is detected, the message WX ALERT is

where the weather alert has been detected. The alert is detected in all modes of
operation (Standby, Dual Watch, Tri Watch, Scan, etc.)
Note:
The Ray49E can receive weather alert broadcasts in the US or Canada only if the
unit has been programmed by the distributor to use WX Channels.
