The weather for the area you are in can be found on one of 7 stations. When in the Weatherband mode, the display will show the “WX” icon and “CH” plus the channel number. The channel can be changed using the UP (13) and DOWN (17) buttons and can be also be preset to the pushbuttons.

The frequency associated with each channel is as follows:
1. 162.550 MHz.
