Okay so my batteries went dead in my weather radio for the first time and I had everything set and fixed do I have to re set the location and the radio being silenced and stuff? Cuz I only had to fix the time is all. And this video helped me when I first got it cuz I’m not the best at following directions lol. But I did keep the box I think not sure if my mom threw it out and it does have its power cord clearly lol just got new batteries incase we lose power this winter cause where we live the snow gets bad in southern ohio. I wish we still lived in South Carolina where we are from cause it snows once every 5-10 years there lol but the weather does get bad down there not snowy bad but bad.
i got the exact model for christmas today (it's the 25th here in the Eastern United States), and i have a question, is it possible to change the stations on this radio? just asking
Can you make one of these silent? Like to where it won’t go off and make that noise? Because it went off today for a flash flood alert scared the living crap out of me.And I was dead asleep. I still would like it to go off but I don’t want it to be so loud that it scares me into almost a heart attack. LOL
Are you supposed to be able to hear weather at any time by hitting the weather button or only during alert broadcasts? For me the button does nothing even after looking up my local tower frequency.
I just got one of these WR120EZ. First how do I delete a location setting I previously installed? After installing a location setting how can I check to see if it is there or do I have to wait for a storm? Also how to completely reset the radio and start over. Thanks..Arnie
These seem very useful. We dont have these to my knowledge here in the uk. Would be useful in particular in the event of flood warnings which seem to be more and more frequent as the years go on...
There is something wrong with mine it keeps beeping every 5 or 10 minutes one time then again 5 or 10 minutes later and all the lights are blinking the warning, the watch, and the advisory what's happening and how to fix it
I just finished programming my weather radio. When I went in to select events there wasn't a Tornado Warning. Just a Tornado Watch. How do I get the Warning?
So I tell as many people as I can this when programming. I’ve been chasing 17yrs now I guess all of 2011 season have lots of tornadoes under my belt. But in 2004 a tornado comes within 0.3mi of my house. My parents have a very nice underground shelter in the back yard. I only had one county set and wasn’t paying attention. The first indication I had was baseball sized hail coming down. The tornado was on its heels by 30 seconds it had wrapped on up tight to the hail core. So I’m in the situation of having a underground shelter but I know the hail is too big to survive 100%. So I had to ride it out inside. Multiple buildings were wiped off of our farm. It was strong F-4 damage. Transmission towers rated for 185mph were ripped apart. So I always tell people even if you are a weather freak you can have it sneak up on you where you just were not in the mood that day and you can have a shelter but you always need to consider the hail might be too big to make it.
What do you do when it doesn’t have your county??? Neither county closest to me in Indiana. Switzerland county is where I live and Ohio county is very close. Has neither!!
Hello Canada, according to the Model # WR-120’s Owners Manual, Yes it works in Canada and goes on to note, at the time of printing, Canada transmits weekly test signals and will display such on the screen
I think my radio is defective because the instructions you give in this video are off. Maybe what I need to see is how to start over setting the Midland after you have made a cross country move. Is there a reset button on this thing? Probably not, but no matter if it is on mulitple, any, or single NOTHING happens on this thing. It is a piece of junk.
Guzzles batteries. Difficult to program. Have to totally reprogram everything at every use. Expensive. Loved the old days when you bought a radio, turned it on, punched alert and DONE.
You lost me on multiple locations by having several already in and just doing one. How do you remove a county. Good video up to then. Assume people know NOTHING! Go slow and show every step!
Thanks Just got my Midland NOAA radio today this video was very helpful
Excellent video. Easy to follow and understand. My weather radio is now programmed! Thank you.
You are an excellent teacher. Thank you.
Thank you. This was so helpful. I really liked the step by step instructions.
Thank you. I couldn't figure out how to set location, you explained it very well.
Thanks for the excellent video.
I lost the manual but yo made it so easy.
Thank you
BOB
Thank you for this instruction. Very easy to follow!
Thanks for making this video to make programming this radio so easy!
Great video with clear instruction. Thank you so much
You explained it wonderfully!
Excellent, clear and slowly given instructions thank you so much! Very helpful.
This is so simple. Thank you for explaining everything as I’ve just bought one.
This thing was going off if someone sneezed 18 states away. Oh man a decent video of how to use it. Thx
Thank you that was very helpful 👍
Excellent demo
Thank you. Very easy😊
Thanks very helpful

If the tone is set as the alert type will the radio do the broadcast longer until you don’t want to hear it anymore?
It was of good help!
Perfect!!! Ty
Thanks! Ready for potential bad weather tonight.
Are you supposed to be able to hear weather at any time by hitting the weather button or only during alert broadcasts? For me the button does nothing even after looking up my local tower frequency.
Thank you!
How do you check to see if you programed the right state and county after having set it as you showed?
We are going to be traveling to Florida. For one month do I have to put in each county that we’re going to be in?
Wat day and time does the radio do the weekly test?
Thank you sir
Thank you
Yeah thank you

Thank you for this video Much help, I understand you can select up to 25 channels. Can you just Scan them?
what is this model number? Most I have seen you need the frequency code for your county on a WR120.
FYI - to DELETE a location use right arrow and reset all digits to 000000.
There is something wrong with mine it keeps beeping every 5 or 10 minutes one time then again 5 or 10 minutes later and all the lights are blinking the warning, the watch, and the advisory what's happening and how to fix it
The volume does not seem to go up or down - I want to turn down the volume but it doesn't change?
I just got me one . That's why I'm here🙂
I'm from Indiana😀

question can you set it for your county and other countys near you and make it go off until you press a button
travis skaggs dont think so, No.
travis skaggs multiple countirwd
Thank for the info on how to set it up. I do have one question how do you know have far the volume button is at
I cant see any options to set either for a winter advisory or a tornado warning on the wr120 anyone can help
REPLY
Carter L. Do you which ones
I cannot get the programming to go past no message! NOAA comes on automtically. How do I de-program the whole thing and start over?
Remove the power cord and the batteries, then hold the weather snooze button
What does default and all on mean?
how do you set channel
What if it is 12 am when u set it up
Does it only going off
For flood thunderstorms and tornados?
And winterstorms
No, it also goes off for wildfires, civil dangers, nuclear power plant, etc
And AMBER Alerts
👍👍
Mine keeps beeping and flashing all the alerts. How do I fix it?
I AM GETTING IT IN MY BIRTHDAY
Edit: I GOT IT ON APRIL 5 INSTEAD
You didn't show how to select the weather radio channel to monitor.
What if your radio doesnt have the location option?
I moved and it’s still giving me the readings for the old place what do I do
Is the Same location for your old place?
I wish it was like the phones
Tone voice AND display
What do you do when it doesn’t have your county???
Neither county closest to me in Indiana. Switzerland county is where I live and Ohio county is very close. Has neither!!
Will this work in Canada 🇨🇦
Hello Canada, according to the Model # WR-120’s Owners Manual, Yes it works in Canada and goes on to note, at the time of printing, Canada transmits weekly test signals and will display such on the screen
I don’t have setting a location.
Mine says channel
Mine must be different It didn't start where you did.
When I hit single it says 01 Empty not the counties list
Joshua Bloodsworth Click Select One More Time Then It Says USA Or Canada
When you unplug Alert Radio will you lose everything?
The answer is No. The radio does not reset
Thank you for this video...the instructions included with the radio are awful!
so i just came from your tablet cleaning video and i was wondering if you ever learned how to say 'et cetera' right
lol...evidently not

I think my radio is defective because the instructions you give in this video are off. Maybe what I need to see is how to start over setting the Midland after you have made a cross country move.

Radio should have a new alert for airborn illnesses !!
You lost me on multiple locations by having several already in and just doing one. How do you remove a county. Good video up to then. Assume people know NOTHING! Go slow and show every step!
Do you know how to do it now
