NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARINE PRODUCTS VIANOAA WEATHER RADIO AT U.S. COAST GUARD SITES IN ALASKA
To expand NOAA Weather Radio coverage in the State of Alaska, the National Weather Service (NWS) and U.S. Coast Guard are partnering to establish a network of
low-power five-watt NOAA Weather Radio transmitters at 25 USCG "high" sites located from the Dixon Entrance to Bristol
Bay.
These low power transmitters will operate on standard NWR frequencies
under joint licensing with the NWS. The NWS
will provide a continuous broadcast audio stream containing the standard
NOAA Weather Radio weather information using the NWS
automated voice system.
All NWS marine forecasts rely heavily on the Voluntary
Observing Ship (VOS) program for obtaining meteorological observations.
