Welcome
Congratulations
on
your
purchase
of
the
Midland
WR-120
All
Hazards
Alert
Weather
Radio
with
S.A.M.E.
All
Hazards means the radio
is
the fastest, most reliable means
of
receiving
information on
life
threatening weather such
as
tornadoes, hurricanes,
floods, ice storms
as
well
as
civil emergencies such
as
Amber alerts,
hazardous explosions, fires and chemical spills.
This information
is
broadcast
24 hours a day, 7 days a week
so
you can stay informed no matter what
time
of
day
it
is.
In
addition
to
all hazards, the WR-120
also
has S.A.M.E. technology (Specific
Area Message Encoding). This gives you the option
of
screening
out
unwanted broadcasts and receiving alerts
only specifically
targeted
to
the
area
in
which you live.
Midland
is
proud
to
say the WR-120
is
Public Alert Certified - meaning
it
has
been tested and approved
to
meet the
Consumer Electronics Association
standards
of
reliability and quality
as
a product carrying public safety
warnings. Therefore
it
is
a
quality
piece
of
electronic equipment,
skillfully
constructed with the finest components and
is
designed for reliable
and
trouble-free performance for years
to
come.
