My NOAA Weather Radio Station Went Wireless

This is what it means when people say that a NOAA Weather Radio station goes wireless.

Most stations use telephone lines to get the audio from the weather office to the transmitters. In some cases, though, some stations will use a type of cellular hotspot that the transmitter will connect to to relay the audio over the internet. This has higher quality and better uptime over all.

This was pulled from my Weather Radio channel, DFW-EAS on YouTube.

    so you said you’ve had this feed for 3 years, what do you use to stream the feed, and does that thing have a recording feature, because I need a weather alert radio with a recording feature, the closest I have is the uniden BCD 436 HP scanner, but that 1 is out of service since it’s giving me SD card errors.

    Nope. It’s just a Midland WR300 hooked up to a Mini PC running Debian linux. It started out in July of 2020 with that same radio being plugged into a Windows 7 desktop. The recordings of that setup don’t sound nearly as good, mainly because the imbedded card on that computer wasn’t great. Now I have a USB card that I use.

    Yes… K East C 55. It’s been doing that ever since NWS Fort Worth made the switch to the new Paul BMH voice back in June of 2016. And long before that, apparently. I found a recording of the Tom CRS voice doing the same thing. Interesting to know. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBQY7iM6AZo

    dam, I noticed that, I wish I could get my hands on those old ass CRS voices though, just to relive when I was like 10 and we got a tornado warning.
