Question about my Midland wr-100 weather alert? please fast?
I’m getting ready to go to bed, but am about to have severe weather during the night. I have a midland alert and have plugged it in and it’s sounding local radio and giving messages from the NWS. But I was wondering if I keep the sound off in the night ( so I don’t have to hear the monotone man talking all night), will the alarm still go off and turn the alert all the way on, should there be a tornado in the area?
or is there a special way I have to go through and program it to go off?
thanks so much, I’m pretty much terrified. I don’t like having to go to sleep and anticipating bad weather in the night.
First of all, relax. Weather forecasters and meteorologists are working around the clock and provide advisories to keep the public posted and what you should do in case of severe weather. Some radios have an alert feature that goes off if severe weather is forecasted or observed in your area.

What are some of the best weather radio’s?
I’m looking to buy a good weather radio which is not only powered by AC but also DC, plus are there weather radio’s available that can be plugged into a cigarette lighter in a vehicle?
Please be specific.
Thanks Kindly
MIDLAND WR300 Weather Radio is a nice model and I like the AM/FM feature. The problem I continually have had with every radio is that we live in the middle of the coverage areas and don’t get the best signal at times. I have solved this by putting a Chore Boy stainless steel scrub pad on the antenna. It definitely improves the reception and seems to do better that foil. Other than that I think this is the best one I have had.

How to turn off the alarm clock on this weather radio?
I have the “Portable Handheld NWR-SAME Weatheradio” and somehow the alarm clock setting was turned on. I’ve gone through the menus and the owners manual (here: http://support.radioshack.com/support_meters/doc72/72242.pdf ) And I can’t find anything about turning the alarm clock off. Does anybody know how to turn it off?
