Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME)
The SAME weather alert allows listeners and EAS
(Emergency Alert System) participants to filter the National
Weather Radio (NWR) broadcast of warnings and emergency
alerts to receive only messages and information for your
selected local geographic area.
The Weather Alert must be turned On for the SAME alert
code to be set. The SAME alert requires that a specific six (6)
digit code be programmed into this radio. To program this
SAME receiver with the proper county(s) and marine areas(s)
of choice, you need to know the 6 digit SAME code
number(s) for the county(s). This setting allows up to 10
available codes that may be set up in any order. Any of the
codes may be turned On or Off for specific weather area
information to be listed.
