Operating Instructions
UHF098 80 Channel UHF Citizen Band Radio
When a narrowband radio receives a transmission from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud and
distorted – simply adjust your radio volume for the best listening performance. When an older wideband radio receives
a signal from a new narrowband radio the speech may sound quieter - simply adjust your radio volume for best
listening performance. When operating a narrowband radio or Channel 41 - 80 interference is possible from wideband
radios transmitting on high power or on adjacent frequency.
The issues described above are not a fault of the radio but a consequence of mixed use of wideband and
narrowband radios.
This unit complies with all relevant Australian
and New Zealand approval requirements

Using the DIN Kit
The UHF098 comes complete with a DIN kit for mounting in a vehicle dash
board.
Installation
When installing your radio in your vehicle, check that during installation
you do not damage any wiring or vehicle components that may be
hidden around the mounting position.
Ensure the installation does not interfere with the operation of
the vehicle and meets all regulatory and safety requirements for
accessories fitted to your vehicle.
For optimum performance your radio needs to be installed correctly. If
you are unsure about how to install your radio, we suggest you have
your radio professionally installed by a UHF specialist or Auto electrician.
When installing the radio, avoid mounting it close to heaters or air
conditioners. Never press the PTT button before connecting the antenna
to the radio.

Installation
Wiring Methods
There are two possible wiring congurations for connecting to the vehicles
power supply.
A. Radio stays ON when the ignition is switched OFF
Connect the radio's negative (black) lead to the vehicle chassis, or directly to the
battery's negative terminal.
Connect the radio's positive (red) lead via the 3 Amp fuse to the battery's
positive terminal. Alternatively, the positive lead could be connected at the fuse
box at a point that has DC Power continuously available (preferably the battery
side of the ignition switch) via the 3 Amp fuse.
B. Radio turns OFF with the ignition switch
Connect the radio's negative (black) lead to the vehicle's chassis, or directly to
the battery's negative terminal.
The radio's positive (red) lead should connect to an accessory point in the
vehicle's fuse box via the 3 Amp fuse.

Antenna information
The antenna (not supplied) is of critical importance to maximize your output
power and receiver sensitivity.
A poorly installed, inferior quality antenna, or one not designed for the correct
frequency band, will give poor performance. You should only purchase an
antenna designed for the 477MHz frequency band.
Antenna installation
1. If the antenna is tted with an FME connector you will require a FME to
PL259 adapter to t the connector on the rear panel of the radio.
2. To obtain maximum performance from the radio, select a high quality antenna
and mount it in a good location.
Never press the PTT before connecting the antenna to the radio.
Optional accessories
If required, you may install an external (8 ohm, minimum 5W power) speaker
tted with a 3.5mm plug (not supplied).

Operations
Operations
Power On/Off
Rotate the power switch in a clockwise direction to turn the unit on, adjust the
volume to a comfortable level, rotate the Power Switch counter clockwise until
it clicks to turn off the power. At power on, the current applied DC voltage is
displayed numerically as shown below. Special over and under voltage detection
circuitry protects the radio and warns of excessive voltage conditions by the LCD
flashing the 7 backlight colours.
Squelch
To adjust the level of squelch use the rotary SQL control. Turning the control
counter clockwise reduces the amount of squelch, and turning clockwise
will increase the amount of squelch. To reduce the signals that you can hear,
increase the squelch, to hear more signals which may include weak signals
decrease the squelch.
To Select a Channel
To select a channel rotate the CH control clockwise or counter clockwise to the
desired channel.
