Does this pick up weather band frequencies?

Yes, no issues with reception. This will vary depending on your location to the broadcasted signal.

Yes. It gives the local weather for the area in which you live. It also has a function to give weather alerts in your area.

It doesn't pick up AM or FM signals, but most almost every AM/FM radio station also broadcasts HD radio, which it will pick up, from anywhere in the world. It is very easy to set up for HD radio and has a "Local Stations" menu that puts all local stations together into one list.

The unit automatically scans the national weather frequency band and locks-on a signal that is strong enough. Keying the microphone will restart the scan. Problem - If all weather band signals are too weak, there is no way to stop the scan. Sometimes a weak signal can be understood.

You can access all frequencies with this unit. Look up your towns freq on the web.

Yes, it willl pick up both frequencies, even radio frequencies. I've tried different antennas, but this one is the best, it even gets more channels and i don't need to reposition the antenna to get better image. I would recommend it.

At my location they did the same thing. You can pick up some of the freq's, depending on the weather. I was suprised that i was able to pick up many of the freq's after the change over.

Not easily. There are at least four different frequencies used. You would have to get four of the same frequency. This is not practical as they are not marked as to frequency used.

It can absolutely receive those frequencies. I'm not sure exactly what you'd hear, but you would hear something. Try changing the modulation between FM and AM if it doesn't work at first.

If you're talking about AM or SW signals then yes. But your question is too broad for a definite answer. If you live 100 miles from a 50,000 watt clear channel AM station, (WABC for example) then yes you will probably pick it up.

Yes, and it is surprisingly sensitive. I get numerous stations in a fringe area. And it has station presets. Handy gadget.

As far as I know it does not give automatic alerts. It has a weather radio, AM and FM.

It picks them up if the antenna is placed in the right spot. My old rabbit ears worked better for some stations. If you can get the antenna to an outside wall or window it works pretty well.

No, if you use the FRS or GMRS band channels. Check google for the corresponding channels to frequencies, just google frs or gmrs channel frequency list.

Yes. It will pick up the channels you have asked about. Example in my area: 9.1, 9.2, 21.1, 21.2, 21.3. Unit works very well. One thing to remember if you have a directional antenna outside on a tower, it may only pick up stations it is pointed at when you do a scan for channels.

I agree with Charles. If the signal is strong enough, it should pick up the channel. I need to move the antenna periodically, but not that often. My antenna picks up two 7.1s and two 7.2s. I hope this helps!

Update. It works fairly well on the aircraft band RECEIVE ONLY. I was able to scan the air band and pick up close to a dozen aircraft frequencies in use.It still cannot transmit on aircraft frequencies. And even if it did, it only transmits FM while aircraft transmission is AM, so nobody could understand you even if you did transmit.
