NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards has operated for more than five decades, primarily transmitting on FM frequencies specifically set aside for weather radio transmissions. Six other frequencies are reserved for NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards, and a few stations simulcast via online streams. Regional National Weather Service (NWS) offices typically operate NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards stations in local areas. Digital broadcast TV stations already use a small portion of their spectrum for datacasting purposes. “NOAA/NWS is looking forward to collaborating with SpectraRep to evaluate innovative approaches for delivering NOAA Weather Radio content via datacasting and other pathways for modernizing access to NOAA Weather Radio content,” Jungbluth said in a statement.
