I have a Uniden Atlantis 295 .how in the world do you get the weather channel to work

This question has been around for quite awhile, but if anyone else requires the information, as best as I can tell from the owners manual (see below) on page 12, each time the radio is turned on, it starts on channel 16. I believe this to be an important feature in case the user is involved in an emergency situation.
(As a victim or as a possible rescuer.)

Look at "radioreference.com"

Turn the radio on, set the radio to USA then use the up-down channel selector and scroll down to channel 1 that's it. Good luck.

me too. Also, transmit seems to work fine but the battery level indicator drops a lot after a few short transmissions.

If they are both VHF's............pick a channel.

try this website here it has all uniden products http://www.uniden.com/index/manuals_results.cfm?cat=3 i believe it uses the same manual as BC248CLT

Ok this problem is caused by the spring mic jack
Getting rusty

Turn off power, hold down the 2, 9 & L/O buttons while turning the power back on.

Hi, this is from the manual,
Locking Out Channels
You can increase the scanning speed by locking out channels that have a continuous transmission, such as a weather channel. To lock out a channel,
manually select the channel, then press Func +L/O.
L/O appears.
Note: You can still manually select locked-out channels.
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually
select the channel, then press Func + L/O.
L/O disappears.
I hope this helps you out,,, Mechanic
