The Colorado Department of Transportation ( CDOT ) has established a series of repeater stations, allowing the All-Hazards NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts to be heard on standard AM/FM radios . Most of these stations are along the Interstate 70 corridor between Grand Junction and Denver, but a few extend into the more populated areas north and south of I-70 in western Colorado. A few of these stations transmit only road conditions, however. Four different FM frequencies are utilized, while two stations (in the Eagle and Edwards area) transmit a 10 Watt signal on an AM frequency. While these stations transmit weather information 24 hours a day, CDOT will occasionally interrupt broadcasts with important highway and travel information. Please note: the weather radio alarm features will NOT work on AM/FM radios.
Currently, the CDOT AM/FM radio weather information repeater network is as follows:
| Location | Freq. | Repeating NWR Transmitter | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aspen | 107.9 FM | Glenwood Springs | |
| Carbondale | 107.9 FM | Glenwood Springs | |
| Craig | 99.7 FM | Direct feed from NWS | |
| Delta | 99.1 FM | Montrose | |
| Eagle | 107.9 FM | Eagle | Transmitter changed from Glenwood Spgs, June 2012 |
| Edwards | 530 AM | Eagle | Transmitter changed from Glenwood Spgs, June 2012 |
| Newcastle | 530 AM | Glenwood Springs | Broadcast interrupted for poor visibilities |
| Gunnison | 99.1 FM | Montrose | |
| Kremmling | 107.9 FM | Steamboat Springs | |
| Leadville | 107.9 FM | Glenwood Springs | |
| Montrose | 99.1 FM | Montrose | |
| Parachute | 106.7 FM | Grand Junction |
| * The NWR Tone Alarm/SAME features will NOT work on AM/FM radios. |
| So, whether you own a NOAA Weather Radio or just a standard AM/FM radio, be sure to keep abreast of the latest weather conditions while at home or traveling the I-70, US Highway 50, or CO Highway 82 corridors in western Colorado. Happy listening! |
