I know it has a weather band (at least I am pretty sure I have tried it) I was just hoping that it would have an alert system that you could turn on to alert you even if you weren't listening to the weather band. I believe the weather bands broadcast this info but maybe its only on the VHF frequency and not FM. Either way, it would be a helpful feature to have.
I just checked the online version of the manual and it does confirm the weather band (at least I know I am not crazy) but doesn't say any anything about alerts - So I guess that settles it. I would be a nice feature to add as a flash update if the radios can in fact received the alerts, but I won't count on it.
