Issue with new WR400

(1/2) > >>

Davejb:
I've had this radio for a couple weeks but it's not alerting according to how I have it set. I plugged in my old WR300 so I'd know when the test went out. I checked the radio when that happened, the advisory light was flashing and the test message was scrolling on the screen but I never got the audio alert.
 I checked the settings and alert is set to voice, when I tap the top button I get clear audio from the NWS so I'm not sure where the problem might be, any suggestions?

looney2ns:
The radio will only alert you if it miss's test's for 10 days. Then it will beep at you.

Davejb:
I'm aware of that, my post stated it failed to audibly alert during the weekly test.

looney2ns:
They are turned off by default. See pages 10 & 11 of the manual.

That was it, thank you sir. Who'd of thought they'd disable the test alert.
