Uniden Bearcat 980 40-Channel SSB CB Radio with 7-Color Digital Display

I love this radio gives seven different color options for the display which is different. And it really gets out!

Ok for price

Nice cb for a truck

Been into radio for many years. This CB is very impressive. Can be used nicely for mobile or base.

After 3 weeks of use in my Big Truck the display started to fail..eventually lost all the display..not much use for a radio that you cant tell what frequency you are on...so there it sits in the box it came in as a paper weight..enough said.

Radio worked good for little over a year. The volume/power knob would randomly not turn the radio on and now it doesnt work at all. At least I got it on sale, but still kind of crappy that it stopped working right after warranty expired. Radio shop told me repairing it wouldnt be worth it. Feels like a ripoff.

I’m not reviewing the radio as I have not used it yet. I noticed a lot of reviews stating that you can’t shut off the beeping noise when changing channels or using other button/knob functions. To remedy (turn offf beeping) press and hold the “ANL/NB” button for one second and no more beeps! It’s in the user manual although it’s poorly defined. No more annoying and unnecessary beeps.

The radio works fine and is what was advertised in the description.

You get it all with this radio. A clarifier that nearly overlaps all three bands. Channel scanning as well as memory present scanning. SWR meter. Mic and RF Gain. A nice anniversary style metal mic. Excellent deal.

The radio itself is decent for the price, however the backlit display keeps going out after the radio is on for a while. I returned the radio due to this issue and was sent a replacement. Unfortunately the replacement does the same thing.
