technique called SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding). The
Midland 74-200 7-channel weather/ all hazards monitor is
designed to receive these SAME transmissions.
Your Midland 74-200 can be programmed with up to 15
predefined state/county codes that will define which notices
broadcast by your NOAA weather station will cause the radio to
alert you. Warnings, watches and statements of weather and other
area emergencies, about 40 different types- will activate the radio
if one or more location code programmed into your unit is
included in the SAME message.
Also included in the SAME message is the amount of time for
which the message is effective. The 74-200 will continue to
display the alert until its time expires.
You don’t need to wait for the 74-200 to give you an alert. Just
find the NWR station broadcasting to your area from the 7
available channels. You can listen at any time, day or night to the
latest weather information from the National Weather Service.
