Provided that your 2-way radio has the feature, there should be either a dedicated weather button or somewhere in the menus. Not sure what model you have. If it is a more advanced radio where you can set the frequency, the list of weather broadcast frequencies taken from NOAA are listed below. Two way radios are normally automatically programmed to one of these frequencies and usually require a push of a button.
Nationwide Station Listing Using Broadcast Frequencies
You must use a compatible programming cable and software (such as Chirp) to program the radio, and the frequencies must be within the radio operating range [400 - 471 MHz].
The Motorola GP3188 is programmable using Motorola CPS software, cable and RIB (radio interface box). The software is proprietary to Motorola and can only be obtained by authorized dealers and other qualifying entities such as Municipalities and/or large companies. The simplest method to get your radios programmed would be to visit your local Motorola dealer or send them to a service center via UPS/FedEx/etc
