It's tough and powerful with a rugged front mic, a 40-channel auto noise/noise blanker switch, instant channel 9, dynamic squelch control, an RF gain, a mic gain, and a channel selector.Classically styled but equipped with all the modern features, the Uniden Bearcat PC68 Elite CB radio is a must for truckers, boaters, and other CB enthusiasts. The radio is housed in a stylish silver chassis with backlit chrome control knobs--an enduring look that's sure to satisfy longtime CB fans. More importantly, the radio operates on any of the 40 AM frequencies authorized by the FCC, while also picking up seven NOAA weather channels. For good measure, it even includes an alarm that sounds when a severe weather storm is forecast.
Perhaps the PC68 Elite's most satisfying feature, however, is Uniden's dynamic squelch control, which delivers a clear signal with less noise so that all your channels sound crisp and legible. The squelch control even reduces noise when the CB user on the other end doesn't have it, an advantage that few other squelch enhancers enjoy. The front-positioned microphone, meanwhile, is easy to access and comfortable to hold thanks to its ergonomic pistol grip.
Additional features include an enhanced night-vision display; adjustable RF and mic gain controls; instant access to channel 9 (the emergency channel); a PA/CB switch; and an analog S/RF meter. The unit, which measures 6.29 by 2.16 by 8.54 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 3.74 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
