Full-Sized, Full-Featured CB and Weather Radio With Classic Styling

Full 40 Channel Operation With Delta Tuning

The PC78 Elite operates on any of the 40 AM frequencies authorized by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), giving you plenty of communication options. The "Delta Tune" feature gives you a more sensitive fine-tuning control, great for getting a more readable signal or dodging the bleed from a high-level signal on an adjacent channel.

Instant Channel 9

This radio also offers instant access to channel 9 should an emergency arise.

Weather Radio/Alert

The PC78 Elite also features weather radio, complete with a weather alert system. Weather Radio continually broadcasts weather conditions on 7 different channels, and the alert system sounds a seven-second signal in the event of severe weather, so you're always on top of whatever mother nature's dishing out.

Dynamic Squelch Control

Uniden's dynamic squelch control 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.

RF/Mic Gain Controls

Boost reception in strong signal areas with the RF gain control, and use the mic gain to adjust microphone sensitivity to your speaking level. The front-positioned microphone is easy to access, with an extra-long coiled cord.

Additional Features

The PC78 Elite also boasts an enhanced night-vision display with backlit controls; 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.
