Be ready for emergencies. The Analog Hand-held Radio Scanner 1010 from Whistler receives VHF Lo bands 29MHz–54MHz, Aircraft 108MHz–136.99166MHz, VHF Hi bands 137MHz–174MHz and UHF Bands 380MHz–512MHz. SKYWARN provides instant access to frequencies used by storm spotter networks to monitor storm conditions as they occur prior to the media or emergency management officials announcing them to the general public. SAME/FIPS weather alert displays the weather event and sounds an alert for a chosen specific county or counties. 200-channel memory stores favorite frequencies in 10 separate storage banks. The unit delays scanning for 2 sec before moving to another channel in order to hear replies. Priority channel sets the scanner to check 1 channel every 2 sec while scanning. Backlit LCD provides easy-to-read displays which helps when programming data in low light situations. And data cloning allows transfer of the programmed data to another WS1010 scanner.
