[Electronics-Talk] Question relating to Weather Radios

[Robin Frost]

Hi,

I believe they might be referenced in the manuals of radios that 
incorporate them.

If you go to the page I'll link just below there's a download a list of 
all same codes here link. I hope that helps. The site is:


https://www.weather.gov/nwr/counties


Take good care,

Robin
