WR-120 Owner’s Manual
Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of the
Midland WR-120 All Hazards Alert Weather Radio with S.A.M.E.
All Hazards means the radio is the fastest, most reliable means of receiving
information on life threatening weather such as tornadoes, hurricanes,
floods, ice storms as well as civil emergencies such as Amber alerts,
hazardous explosions, fires and chemical spills. This information is broadcast
24 hours a day, 7 days a week so you can stay informed no matter what
time of day it is.
In addition to all hazards, the WR-120 also has S.A.M.E. technology (Specific
Area Message Encoding). This gives you the option of screening out
unwanted broadcasts and receiving alerts only specifically targeted to the
area in which you live.
Midland is proud to say the WR-120 is Public Alert Certified - meaning it has
been tested and approved to meet the Consumer Electronics Association
standards of reliability and quality as a product carrying public safety
warnings. Therefore it is a quality piece of electronic equipment, skillfully
constructed with the finest components and is designed for reliable and
trouble-free performance for years to come.
