Holiday Contest and Sweeps
recently had the pleasure to review the La Crosse NOAA Weather Band AM/FM Red Alert Super Sport
Radio from Wind and Weather. Their generosity in providing me with this radio
to review and then offer one to my readers in a giveaway, will keep you and
your family stay aware of severe weather all year long.
Not only can you find this
unique radio at Wind and Weather's online store, you can also find amazing
deals on just about everything you can use in your Home and Garden. Being a
Certified NOAA Severe Weather Spotter, I can honestly say that Wind and Weather
is the place to shop for all your weather equipment needs ranging from simple
weather products to the more advanced equipment.
This compact NOAA super sport
weather radio has a blue LED back-lit screen that automatically turns to red
and starts to flash during weather alerts in your area. It’s an effective
warning system that’s hard to ignore.
The handheld AM/FM radio
features seven different NOAA weather band channels to provide up-to-the-minute
weather information that can help keep you safe at home, or on the go. A made
in the U.S.A. IC chip provides high-quality digital radio signals you can count
on for excellent receiver performance. It has a built-in telescopic antenna and
non-slip rubberized finish. It's a must for campers, hikers, boating
enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to stay updated on the weather. It requires
three AA alkaline batteries (not included).
When a Severe Weather Alert
is issued by the National Weather Service, the blue screen will change to a Red
screen alerting you of approaching severe weather. Here is sample alert from
the National Weather Service, this is how your radio will sound when the alert
is activated.
THIS IS ONLY A SAMPLE ALERT ONLY
A Built in .5 watt LED flashlight is very bright and has high/low modes. This is a excellent light. Also, when a alert is issued the "red alert" will glow a bright red while the severe weather alert is broadcast.
The sides of the radio contain the following controls, which makes this radio highly unique
* Volume Controls
* LED Flashlight with the push of a button with On/Off High/Low Modes.
* Channel Control Button
* On/Off Control
* Headphone Jack
* Telescoping Antenna
* AM/FM Channel Selection Buttons
* Optional 6 volt a/c adapter
* Lanyard for easy carrying
This Radios compact size ( 2.87 in L x 5.15 in H x 1.29 in D) makes it very easy to take with you wherever you may go.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is responsible for transmitting the alerts for which this radio receives. Once a alert is broadcast this radio goes into action by displaying the bright red screen and alert light on top, and then
broadcasting the alert. Here are a few of the alerts that will activate this radio.
Severe Thunderstorm Watch / Warning
Tornado Watch / Warning
Flash Flood Watch / Warning
Winter Storm Watch / Warning
Special Weather Statement
Heat Advisory / Warning
High Wind Watch /Warning
I defiantly give this radio a five star rating and would suggest that this radio belongs
in every household for their safety. A big thank you to Wind and Weather for allowing
me to review this radio and make my readers and my joining blogs readers aware that
Severe Weather is nothing to take for granted. Keeping you and your family safe gets a
littler bit easier with this La Crosse Radio by your side. Take a minute and visit Wind and
