[wxqc] NOAA Weather Radio

[Dan Crooks]

Dennis,

I purchased a Radio Shack model #12-258 Weather radio with USB.  IIRC it was
about $70 and it picks up SAME-NWR alerts.  It will save the report as a
text file on your computer (using included software) and it can be included
on your webpage.  You can view my setup
here<http://weather.dcrooks.net/wx3.html>it has the weekly SAME test
message displayed.

Unfortunately I was unable to find the radio on the RS site so it may be
discontinued.  Sending the info in hopes you can find another source for the
radio.
