Programming County Codes:
Helpful Tip: The S.A.M.E. code is created using the following method:
• The first digit is the subcounty code-currently 0 in most areas.
• The second two digits represent the state code.
• The last three digits represent the county code.
“ALL” County Codes

Your WR300 weather radio is preprogrammed to receive NWS weather and hazard alert
