TIDRADIO TD-H3 Weather?

[Skunkworks]

Does the H3 have weather band programmed?  Is there a shortcut? I can't seem to get mine into weather band.  In a video review, I saw the host hold down the bottom soft key to get to weather band, but mine goes to FM commercial radio.  Is this key programmable?  I'd like have it go to weather since holding the "8" will get you to FM.

I use the CHIRP NEXT version of the programing software since it allows you to select "S" for skip in the scan column.
Then the NOAA Wx channels won't lock up in the channel scan mode on my H3.

Yes, but it seems for it to be a default freq you need to set the special key "12" in the manual to cycle to NOAA.

page 10 and 11.

First thing when you get a radio is to read the manual. The second thing is try to figure out whether the manual actually applies to your radio and try all the buttons.

Thanks. I did read through the manual, but somehow missed that.  I was able to program it to my liking using Chirp.

I just scrolled the channels up (or down).  So once I hit channel up or down past the last pre-programmed channels (1 or 30)  it automatically jumps to the weather frequencies.  This was pre-programming/out of the box.

I got my H3 in the Ham version and reprogrammed it to the GMRS version and the weather channels, 11 of them were right after the 8th repeater channel (RPT8).  I actually took them out of the scan function because I have 2 active ones and it would always break up the scan.  I didn't have to program anything to get them in there.  GMRS Version 240229 on my H3 (setting 42).
