Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Part of Uniden's Professional Series, the PC78XL CB operates on any of the 40 AM frequencies authorized by the FCC, with adjustable squelch and gain controls to enhance performance. Its signal meter, antenna warning, and several LED indicators let you monitor activity at a glance. The front-positioned microphone has an extra long, coiled cord for convenient use. This unit also offers instant channel 9 access and soft wave radio (SWR) calibration.

Uniden PC78XL
The PC78XL is a solid choice for truckers, boaters, and other CB enthusiasts.

Full-Sized, Full-Featured CB Radio

Full 40 Channel Operation With Delta Tuning

The PC78XL operates on any of the 40 AM frequencies authorized by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), giving you plenty of communication options. The "Delta Tune" feature gives you a more sensitive fine-tuning control, great for getting a more readable signal or dodging the bleed from a high-level signal on an adjacent channel.

Instant Channel 9

This radio also offers instant access to channel 9 should an emergency arise.

Dynamic Squelch Control

Uniden's dynamic squelch control 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.

RF/Mic Gain Controls

Boost reception in strong signal areas with the RF gain control, and use the mic gain to adjust microphone sensitivity to your speaking level. The front-positioned microphone is easy to access, with an extra-long coiled cord.

Additional Features

The PC78XL also boasts a PA/CB switch, channel indicator, and comprehensive monitoring/calibration with an analog S/RF/SWR/Mod meter. The unit measures 7.28 by 8.89 by 2.20 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 4 pounds 3 ounces, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Radio, April 14, 2001

Baljit S. Sull (Tucson, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Uniden PC78XL 40 Channel CB Radio with Front Mic (Electronics)
I had this radio in my car and worked great. It is a Clear talker ... but remeber , to recieve and transmit well you must have a good antenna. A good radio is useless without a good antenna.

EXCELLENT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT...YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THE LIGHTED VERSION FIRST BECAUSE THE CONTROLS CAN BE SEEN AT NIGHT MORE EASILY.

This review is from: Uniden PC78XL 40 Channel CB Radio with Front Mic (Electronics)

I've had this for about a month and like it a lot. It gets used daily, about 4hrs. The features are easy to use and gets out crystal clear.
