UNIDEN Model uh095sx Dual Band (UHF CB/AM CB) Radio

Introduction

The Uniden uh095sx is designed to provide you with years of trouble free service. Its rugged components and materials are capable of withstanding harsh environments. Please read this Operating Manual carefully to ensure you gain the optimum performance of the unit

The citizen band radio service is licenced in Australia by ACMA Radio-communications (Citizen Band Radio Stations) Class Licence and in New Zealand by MED General User Licence for Citizen Band Radio and operation is subject to conditions contained in those licenses.

Features

Preventive Maintenance:

The following system checks should be made every six to twelve months:

= Check the Standing Wave Ratio (SWR). = Inspect the tightness of all electrical connections. = Inspect the antenna coaxial cable for wear or breaks on the shielding. = Inspect the tightness of all screws and other mounting hardware.

Troubleshooting:

Should the unit malfunction or perform poorly, follow these procedures:

If the transceiver is completely inoperative: Check the power cord and fuse. If there is trouble with receiving: Check the VOLUME control setting. Be sure the SQUELCH is

adjusted properly. Possibly the radio is over-squelched.

If there is trouble with transmitting: Check that the transmission line (coaxial cable) is securely connected to the ANTENNA connector. Check that the antenna is fully extended for proper

operation. Check that all transmission line (coaxial cable) connections are secure and free of corrosion.

Blackening may occur on the Liquid Crystal Display if the uh095sx has been subjected to extreme high temperature (above 60°C) . This is not a fault. Normal LCD operation resumes when the temperature stabilizes back to standard operating operating condition (0-55°C).
