Standby and receive
Standby mode is the usual mode for the radio whenever
it is turned on. From this mode, you can change your
settings using the buttons on the front of the radio and
switch to Transmit mode using the Talk button. Signals
will be received on the selected channel(s) and alerts
broadcast by the Coast Guard and NOAA will activate
the corresponding routines in your radio.
NOTE
Coast Guard alerts are broadcast on Channel 16
and you need to have weather alert turned on
to receive NOAA alerts.
While in Standby mode, you will receive any messages
sent on the channel to which you are tuned.
