Weather radio question... April 14, 2015, 01:19:04 pm Yahoo Message Number: 152244I used to have a S.A.M.E. weather radio - came in very handy several times in the southeast in the spring! ;-)A question about a feature listed for the Midland WR300: the website description (https://midlandusa.com/product/wr-300/ ) states that the radio has "23 programmable counties/provinces"; does this mean that the radio is capable of programming 23 counties in each of the 7 NOAA districts (and/or the Canadian weather districts), or 23 counties/provinces in total? I can't think that it would be the latter; there are well over 3000 counties in the U.S.! (Granted, not all might be subject to weather events severe enough for warnings, but 23?)I'm pretty sure that I'm missing some basic point here (that happens a lot more frequently than it used to! ;-) ), but perhaps someone might clarify the "23 counties" feature?Joan

Multiple makes sense if you are near the border of two or more counties.Art
