I own this radio... Fun Fact if you Hold down the ANL/NB button down for 2 seconds that removes the annoying beep 😉

Yeah " u will set that back to 12 watts" 🤭 I'm sure lol 😆 I had mine peaked and tuned and it's doing 15 watts am and sideband its the best radio I ever had in my dump truck gets out so far with a Wilson 5K and we only run AM company channel. Great video

when you're receiving on SSB, you need to adjust your fine/course clarifier to make the recieve clear and to understand their transmission.

The first version had the beep permanently but you can remove it internally. The second version has the ability to turn it off from the controls. To know what version you have look at the rear and alongside the antenna connector if there is a screw its the first version if only a hole then its the second version.

Thanks for that Brenton. Turned out my 980 is a older version and I had to remove the 100K resistor and now no more Beep.

Just purchased one new from Amazon and it only does 2.5 watts on am and 5 watts on sideband. How do i increase to what they claim it will do. I found the AM pot but no the SSB one. Thanks.

uniden 980 - For models produced after 10/2015: Press and hold the ANL/NB button for one second to turn key beep tone on and off. Use this button to turn key beep on and off. Press and hold until BP ON or BP OFF displays. for models before 10/2015 - Locate the writing Q217 on the board. almost directly under the "1" in Q217 where it is printed on the board is a component. Remove it using a soldering iron, BE CAREFUL and use a magnifying glass

you press and hold the ANL/NB to turn off the beep

Starting to talk on CH16 LSB, World Wide CH 16 LSB Operators. join in Facebook Group, but not necessary . Just trying to take some pressure of CH38 LSB. Going to start a net if enough support. Have a great weekend, 21 in S.C.

I prefer analog meters as well.

It's a good radio. That dang beep is a pain a little info taking the resistor out doesn't fully get rid of the beeps if you plug in an external speaker you can still hear it lower which makes me wonder if a different value resistor can be added to lower the beep hmm 🤔

I can live with the beep. (Mine is a 1st Gen. so, it can't be shut off by pressing ANL/NB). I just want the LCD to work again.

Be so much easier to watch without the tones.

Hold ANL NB down to turn off beep.

hold the rf gain button and you can adjust it lol

My RF noise floor is at 4-5 db at all times, every channel, is that normal?

Heya, from NZ, wondering if there is a way to get it down to 26Mhz, thx :)

Does anyone out there in Australia can tell me how to hook up test gear to a cb radio so it actually works for me?

When in scan mode does it also scan the USB and LSB's, or does it just scan the main 40 channels?

I just got one for my truck and I was messing with the setup and to be quite candied, I messed the settings up. Do you know a video that shows this unit and how to get back to factory settings?

If you know how to make the display brighter that would be great.

TX MT = Transmit Meter

Hi Brenton, do you happen to have a service manual for this model radio? We can't get them here in the USA. If so could you maybe share it? Kevin Rea Lancaster california USA
