Overview
Tune a weather radio to 162.475 MHz to hear WNG556, the NOAA Weather Radio station serving the Moab area of Utah. It carries National Weather Service forecasts and warnings 24 hours a day.
Its broadcasts come from the National Weather Service forecast office in Grand Junction, CO. The transmitter itself stands at Bald Mesa. It transmits with 300 watts of power.
Its signal is meant to serve 3 counties: Grand County, Emery County (southeast half) and San Juan County (north half). If your radio supports SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding), program the six-digit code for your county from the table below so it alerts only for warnings that affect you.
