Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Classically styled but equipped with all the modern features, the Uniden Bearcat PC68XL CB radio is a must for truckers, boaters, and other CB enthusiasts. The radio is housed in a stylish silver chassis with 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, giving users plenty of communication options. It even offers instant access to channel 9 should an emergency arise.

Perhaps the PC68XL'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 versatile thanks to its extra-long coiled cord.

Additional features include an adjustable LED channel display and transmit/receive indicators for monitoring activity at a glance; adjustable RF and mic gain controls; 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 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

5.0 out of 5 stars My first CB Radio, February 28, 2001
This unit looks and works great. Installation was easy and the performance has been great. Has all the adjustments that I was looking for plus the weather channels. I didn't really want the weather channels at the time of purchase, but I'm glad I have them now.

The cosmetics are great -- chrome dials, silver face, green back-lighting, analog signal meter.

The unit is not a compact unit, but I was able to fit it under the radio in my '96 Ford Ranger without too much trouble. The 9' microphone cord seemed really long to me when I saw that on the spec sheet, but it is actually about perfect.

There are a couple of downsides: The Dynamic Squelch Control is completely useless. As far as I can tell, it just automatically sets the squelch to a higher-than-appropriate level. With DSC on, you miss all low-powered transmissions and some high-powered ones. DSC works great if you're only interested in a ~300' radius. I never turn mine on.

The other downside is that it's nearly impossible to determine the knob positions by sight. That is, you can't easily look down and see that the volume is at 1/2 and squelch is at 1/8, etc.

Neither of these downsides are that big of a deal, though.

BTW, I use the RF Gain control much more than squelch to fine tune my reception. Don't buy a CB radio without RF Gain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CB, March 18, 2003
By A Customer
This CB is perfect for any person interested in CB radios. Mounted it in my 94 Ford Explorer easily. Every aspect of the CB is useful. The dynamic squelch is very useful for beginners when they're not quite sure how to set the squelch just right. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a CB.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great all around CB radio, May 28, 2009
By Adam Hannah (Broken Bow, OK USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
--If you are looking for a good all-around A.M. only (no Sidebands) mobile CB radio (operates on automobile voltage, not 120V mains), this is it. This is the second one of these radios I have purchased for friends, and they work great. This radio has great receive and great transmit audio as well. At the current price of $69.15 (which includes free shipping), the price is unbeatable. If a quality mobile CB radio is what you are after, buy this Uniden.
