Product Description

Oregon Scientific's compact handheld WR-102 radio receives all seven NOAA weather radio channels and can be programmed to display only warnings and alerts that occur in your local area. The radio continuously receives broadcasts and sounds the radio speaker whenever an alert comes through so you can be sure to be on top of the latest weather news.

The WR-102 uses Specific Area Messaging Encoding (SAME) technology, giving you the option of screening out unwanted broadcasts and receiving alerts only for the geographical areas you program (up to six counties of your choice). It also receives National Weather Service broadcasts and alerts vital to survival in the aftermath of earthquakes, storms, floods, explosions, radiation emergencies, toxic chemical spills, and other life-threatening disasters.

The LCD's backlit display assures the best readability. This water-resistant radio also doubles as a digital alarm clock with snooze feature. It includes a belt clip and stand. The WR-102 runs on three AA batteries (not included) and also has a plug-in jack for AC power.
