Would like to get it fixed so it doesn't do that...first time it "screamed" was while we were OTR listening to other chatter, and the second was about 10 o'clock at night...
The "high pitched scream" is the NOAA weather alert going off. Took me forever to figure that out. The manual describes how it works in detail and how to disable it but essentially, if you tune to a weather channel and then go back to CB, or even off, it still monitors the NOAA alerts. If you turn the radio on then to weather you'll hear the severe weather alert. It'll make you mess your drawers when it goes off in the middle of the night but its a nice feature, I think. If ou don't have the manual, PM me and I'll find mine and tell you how it operates.
Damn near makes you mess your drawers driving down the freeway too!
