What frequencies is NOAA Weather Radio broadcast on and how can I get a list of the frequencies in my state?

The seven NWR broadcast frequencies are: 162.400 MHz, 162.425 MHz, 162.450 MHz, 162.450 MHz, 162.475 MHz, 162.500 MHz, 162.525 MHz, and 162.550 MHz. NWR coverage is expanding through NWS partnership programs with local communities. Monroe County is served by the White Lake Forecast Office on KEC63 at 162.550 MHz.

Broadcast range from the weather radio transmitter is approximately 40 miles. The effective range depends on terrain, quality of the receiver, and indoor/outdoor antennas. Before you buy a receiver, make sure your area is covered by one of the transmitters.
