WR-300 Alert Question
« on: January 17, 2020, 09:01:11 PM »
Hello! I'm new to the forum so I'd like to say hello to everyone!

I recently bought a WR300 and was wondering if there is any setting similar to the "Display" alert type?

I basically want the radio to display the alert, but no siren or beeping.

Thanks!

You can enable or disable alerts.
If enabled you have to choose voice or siren.
Then you have to choose high or low volume.
Certain alerts can be defeated (silenced).
You can plug in an external light to get a better visual when the alert happens.
There is a headphone jack but you'd have to test if that disables the speaker or not for alerts, but I think not.

See manual page 9 - 12.
