Safety Made Simple

Capable of receiving seven National Oceanic & Atmospheric Association (NOAA) /Environment Canada channels each of which receives and displays emergency advisories on tornadoes, floods, severe thunderstorms, civil danger warnings, and more in three languages (English, Spanish, French), the WR-120B is a must for people who live in high-risk weather areas, such as the Southeast or Midwest. Plus, the seven NOAA channels offer coverage for roughly 93 percent of the U.S., so most people are well covered regardless of where they live.

Public Alert
Midland WR-120 Front
Color coded Alert Indicators for over 60 types of alerts.
Midland WR-120 Rear
Rear controls/ports, left to right: external antenna, cleaning port, external alert, power button.

The WR-120B features Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) reception. SAME allows users to program the radio to sound an alert only when weather and other emergencies threaten a selected county or counties. The technology eliminates all alerts from other areas, so users won't have to perk up their ears each time the alert sounds only to find the emergency is actually 100 miles up the highway.

In addition, the WR-120B's memory system accepts up to 25 counties, so you can monitor a broad swatch of counties at once or restrict it to one. Should an alert occur, users have a choice of three warning systems: a 90 dB siren, a voice alert, or a flashing LED light. The siren is the best option for people with larger homes or who aren't always near the monitor, while the latter two options work well for smaller homes.

Additional features include a clock with an alarm and a snooze button, an emergency power backup that keeps your radio working during power outages or outdoor use, and external antenna and alert jacks. The WR-120B, which works with three AA batteries (not included), is backed by a one-year warranty, and is the 2011 replacement for the popular WR-100.

  • SAME Localized Reception
  • Continuous Backlighting Option--keeps the LCD on

Oregon Scientific Wireless Rain Gauge

Oregon Scientific Wireless Rain Gauge Review



Oregon Scientific Wireless Rain Gauge Feature

  • Remote rain gauge compatible with the Oregon Scientific weather station
  • Measures daily and cumulative rainfall and rate of fall
  • Powered by solar transmitter with battery back-up
  • Wireless transmission up to 300 feet
  • Main unit of weather station required for readings
Find out exactly how much rain falls with this remote rain gauge, a component of the Oregon Scientific weather station. Friends and relatives in different parts of the country can each set up their own system and compare—-does Seattle or Boston receive more annual rainfall? The durable plastic cylinder with wire-screen top measures 5-3/4 inches high and 4-1/2 inches in diameter at the base, and it can be securely anchored to a deck or other outdoor fixture. A cable attached to the rain gauge plugs into its own small solar-powered transmitter (batteries for backup included), which in turn sends data to the main unit of the weather station (sold separately). The weather station is programmable to display readings in inches or millimeters, and measures daily and cumulative rainfall and rainfall rate. While a three-month warranty covers defects, the station should give years of pleasure to storm lovers. --Ann Bieri The Rain Gauge measures the total amount and rate of rainfall and transmits the data to the base unit from up to 300 feet away. The Rain Gauge features a self-emptying collection unit. It is powered by a solar cell with battery backup. This Rain Gauge is designed to be used with the Oregon Scientific Wireless Weather Station (WMR112A)
