So...I finished programming the 120EZ. I tuned it to El Paso County, Colorado, where we live. I set it to give warnings for high winds, violent storms, tornadoes, flash floods, fires, and wild fires since we get plenty of those. I turned off the alerts for coastal storms, hurricanes, and coastal tide warnings since I haven't seen many of those in Colorado. I opted for the three minute voice warning, which is preceded by 8 seconds of alert tone. Doug is right, the alert tone is rather loud. I have the option of turning off the alert tone and just receiving a text alert display. For now, I'm opting to leave the alert tone on to see how it sounds when we get an actual warning. My wife and I both have hearing losses so that may be of advantage to us. I adjusted the voice warning volume to an acceptable level. When we take the120EZ on the road with us I may also try the alarm clock it has built-in.
Now...we're just waiting to here it work. Sometime after that, I'll come back with an update.
