Uniden Bearcat 980 40-Channel SSB CB Radio with 7-Color Digital Display

It broke within 3 days. Junk radio.

Save your money if you want to buy a CB radio and just buy an inexpensive Cobra or Midland. I wish I hadnt thrown away my old really cheap Cobra 19 that was really inexpensive. That cheap radio was ten times a better radio than this Uniden Bearcat 980 SSB. In order to hear any talk on CB with this radio I have to be within 1/4 mile of anyone. I have used it in two vehicles and two different antennas and this radio is about useless. The radio now sits on the rear floor of my car not even hooked up. SSB I have never heard any talk on it. I have to say this radio has got to be the biggest waste of money I have ever spent. If I could sell it for $50 it would be sold.

Been into radio for many years. This CB is very impressive. Can be used nicely for mobile or base.

Its a nice entry level CB if you want side band. Lots of features. My only problem with this radio is the noise blanker. It just doesnt work that well on AM. It makes the radio sound kind of muffled. But other than that I like it.

he loves it! Thank you!!!:):):)

After 3 weeks of use in my Big Truck the display started to fail..eventually lost all the display..not much use for a radio that you cant tell what frequency you are on...so there it sits in the box it came in as a paper weight..enough said.

Ok for price

AAAAA++++++

Looks great, Functions great, at a great price

Radio worked good for little over a year. The volume/power knob would randomly not turn the radio on and now it doesnt work at all. At least I got it on sale, but still kind of crappy that it stopped working right after warranty expired. Radio shop told me repairing it wouldnt be worth it. Feels like a ripoff.
