NOAA ALERT MESSAGES

MESSAGE CODES USED BY THE NWR

When the NWR airs urgent warnings, a digital code
known as Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) is
included as part of the message. This coding system
contains specific information including the localized
geographical area affected and the expiration time of
the message. The WR108 retrieves and interprets SAME
code messages and alerts the user. When SAME codes
for a specific region have been entered into the unit, the
unit alerts the user to relevant warning information for
the specified region. Once alerted, a voice broadcast
can be heard.
