Setting The Radio Channel; Locations; Setting The Location - Oregon Scientific WR108 Guide De L'utilisateur

The unit labels each frequency as a channel (1-7 or
Auto). Once the radio frequency for a region has been
selected the unit will receive voice and code information
from that station.
The channel number in use can be viewed on the top
left-hand corner of the LCD.

SETTING THE RADIO CHANNEL

To change the radio channel, navigate to "Set Channel"
setting mode and select the desired Channel, as shown
in the Changing Settings section.

LOCATIONS

SETTING THE LOCATION

You need to set the location so that you can receive
weather and environmental information for an area that
is relevant to you.
You can choose the location by either the state and
county name, or FIPS code. Up to 9 locations (1-9) can
be stored.
NOTE If you do not set a location, the radio will use the
default setting "CO:All" for all counties.
To set the location:
1. Navigate to "Set Location" setting mode as shown
in the Changing Settings section.
2. Select where you want to store the location e.g. C1.
3. Select the 6-digit number e.g. "000000". ("----" means
the location is disabled.)
4. Select "Name" or "FIPS".
• If you select "Name" you can select first the State
and then the County of your chosen location, then
press EXIT. (If you wish to receive State-wide NOAA
messages, press EXIT once you have selected the
State.)
• If you select "FIPS" you need to enter the 6-digit
SAME code of your chosen location and then press
EXIT (see Finding Local Channels & SAME Codes
section for how to obtain a SAME code).
NOTE If at step 2 you select "C0:All" you will receive all
warnings within the unit's reception range. This may
result in giving you information for regions that are not
relevant. The regions can be as large as 5,000 square
miles (13 sq km). If you select "CO:----" you will disable
the ALL option and will only receive warnings from
specified local areas.
NOTE Once the location name is selected, the
corresponding FIPS code will be set into the memory.
You cannot convert the code back to the location name.
(FIPS is the Federal Information Processing System
