Amazon.com Product Description:
Classically styled but equipped with all the modern features, the Uniden Bearcat PC78 Elite CB radio is a must for truckers, boaters, and other CB enthusiasts. The radio is housed in a stylish silver chassis with backlit 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 authorized by the FCC, while also picking up seven NOAA weather channels. For good measure, it even includes an alarm that sounds when a severe weather storm is forecast.
Perhaps the PC78 Elite'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 comfortable to hold thanks to its ergonomic pistol grip and extra-long coiled cord.
Additional features include an enhanced night-vision display; Delta tuning; adjustable RF and mic gain controls; instant access to channel 9 (the emergency channel); a PA/CB switch; soft-wave radio (SWR) calibration; and signal meter, antenna warning, and LED indicators that let you monitor radio activity at a glance.
The unit, which measures 7.28 by 2.2 by 8.89 inches (W x H x D) and weighs a little over 4 pounds, is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

- Bearcat CB Radio
When I ordered the radio, I was surprised to find it being shipped and delivered on time. Very leary about using the internet for unseen purchases as I have almost no experience in it. Very pleased with the entire process and the credit card charge was for the exact amount. The price of the radio was far cheaper than in the department stores and the quality of it is extremely good. I won't hesitate to get another Uniden Bearcat CB radio of needed.

- Latest and Greatest ?Not quite.
I purchased this 11 meter radio to see if CB technology had advanced any in the 21st century.Wow was I surprised - it has gone backwards.
This radio doesn't hold a candle to my stock Uniden Grant XL (from 1993).I put two antennas on the roof of my truck and played with receive audio for a while.After my first test, I switched the antennas to be fair.Still the same results.I was pulling in nice clear audio on the old Grant XL, but could barely make out every other word on the ...
