First Alert Brand Emergency Alert Radios give you the life-saving advantage of an automatic warning before severe weather and other emergency conditions arise. Designed for use before, during and after emergencies, these radios meet the new CEA standard for Public Alert devices.
Accurate Digital Tuning
The unit uses accurate digital crystal controlled PLL (phase locked loop) tuning for all (7) NWR Channels. Analog radios which are tuned by turning a knob are prone to drift off of the set station over time and temperature changes.
Digital Alert Decoding
The (S.A.M.E Specific Area Message Encoding) Technology allows the radio to decode the digital broadcast information for all types of emergency, both civil (radiological, oil spills and chemical releases)natural (weather, earthquakes and volcano activities). These emergency alerts can be targeted to a specific area, with a granularity of 1/9th of a county. The text of the event is then shown on the LCD.
NWR Alerting Receiver
Constantly monitors one of the seven NOAA Weather Radio channels (162.400 162.550 MHz) for any emergency notifications i.e. civil emergency, AMBER Alert. There are more than 900+ NWR Stations covering 95% of US population. The system is used daily, and tested weekly.
Alert Siren
A two tone alert siren which sounds when an emergency alert is received. The siren can be set to mute, LOW ( 80 dBa ), or HIGH( 90 dBa ).
Location Programming
Up to 20 locations can be programmed into the radio, ensuring that users are only alerted to Emergency Alerts which pertain to their specific area. A county can be divided into 9 sub-regions.
Automatic Test Sentry
The NWR transmitters are tested weekly. The radio includes an automatic test monitor, which listens for these weekly tests to ensure that the radio is receiving a proper signal. |
