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

Gorgeous looking. Nice rig !

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

decent little radios for the price but if you have problems which I did the radio just DIED, they will leave you hanging why? the address in the manual to send the radio in for repair is not current. so instead of UNIDEN forwarding your package to the new facility? NOPE they ship it back to you.. and that is where they leave it.. YOU have to LOOK UP the uniden number online and get the PROPER place to send your radio in for repair then it is t least a 2 month wait

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.

Bought a dash kit for a double din had to modify that a little but it fit in my tacoma nicely going to put a external speaker and pa speaker in it

Arrived fast and every was the way it should

I researched for a week before deciding to buy this one, and it does everything it says it can. After setting the SWR I found some people chatting on channel 38 lower sideband, and asked for a radio check. They told me I was loud and clear, and they were over 20 miles away from my location!! It was even better quality than I thought it was going to be, and I really love that it has 7 colors to choose from. Excellent little radio! Shipping was on time, and the price is right!

Its a nice entry level CB if you want side band. Lots of features. My only problem with this radio is the noise blanker. It just doesnt work that well on AM. It makes the radio sound kind of muffled. But other than that I like it.

No microphone adapter

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.
