SAME codes on 246-t

[Haley]

I posted a question in another forum about the 246-t, but this one seemd more suited for this one. I have gotten used to seeing the actual SAME text for an event on my trusty 92B, does the 246t actually show the event on the screen also (the manual is a little vauge) i.e. Tornando Warning, Blizzard ect.? Thanks, Mike

Although Canada is still in test stages for S.A.M.E., when they do come across, it usually comes across as WX Warning.

Thanks for the reply----the old 92B would display whatever text was sent. I have logged Tornado Warnings, watches, T-Storm Warnings, watches, Flooding, Blizzards ect. Its actually kind of a cool feature. Thanks for the info (I go up to Grand Marais, MN. about once a year). I am thinking since the 246-T has the Weather Canadian Freq. in it that maybe I could catch a SAME alert when I am there. Mike
