This display has seven different color options and shows the CB channel, frequency, digital SRF and SWR meters, and other radio functions.

The Uniden 980's features don't stop there. Weather stations, scanning and alerts keep you informed of current conditions and severe weather situations. The radio check diagnostic feature provides information on RF power, antenna condition and battery voltage.

Great radio

Awesome radio. Puts a modern spin on the traditional CB’s. I paired it with a Wilson 1000 magnetic mount and love it. A real decent setup without breaking the bank.

Great radio

Got my radio working in my truck yesterday. I really like the way it's working so far. I haven't talked to anyone yet but i checked my SWR and the meter showed barely a 1 on channel 40 and almost a 1.1 on channel 1. looking forward to talking to someone. I've been through the different functions of the radio and the way they all work.
