MEDIA RELEASE November 2014 New plug and play UHF CB mobile radio for easy transfer between vehicles Uniden has expanded its line-up of UHF radio communication with the new UH8020S UHF CB mobile radio featuring Master Scan™ technology. Abandoning the need for costly third-party installation, the ultra-compact and portable UH8020S offers a fuss free plug-and-play set-up and can be simply removed when not in use, or transferred between vehicles. The UH8020S comes with an included windscreen mounting kit and adjustable magnetic antenna, which can be easily fixed to the vehicle as desired. Priced at a retail value of $279.95, the UH8020S is one of the most advanced, affordable and convenient ways of communicating while out and about. The UH8020S UHF CB mobile radio is ideal for a variety of road users looking for an advanced incar UHF solution. The UH8020S features Uniden’s innovative Master Scan™ technology, designed to ensure minimal disruptions for continuous communication. This premium feature also has Dynamic Switching, which lets users retain constant communication by changing over to unused channels. This network scan function searches for other radios that share the same CTCSS or DCS tone. When the radio detects a signal with no code or an incorrect code, it switches to an unused channel when transmitting. By scanning only group channels, radios in the network will be able to detect and receive group transmissions, offering continuous communication without interruption. Using pre-batched group channels also helps to avoid complicated settings. The Lightning Encode feature is an advanced rectifier circuit, enabling the radio to decode CTCSS/DCS quickly. “UHF users want premium, value-for-money products that are practical and simple to use - no matter where they are or the type of vehicle in use. With its ultra-compact, portable design and reliable communication, we anticipate the UH8020S will be a popular choice for connecting with others while on the road,” said Brad Hales, National Marketing Communication Manager, Uniden Australia. As a standard feature across all new UHF CB mobile radios, the UH8020S is built for rugged Australian conditions. The UH8020S has been temperature tested to withstand harsh summers and is shock resistant for high performance, even when travelling across rugged terrain. For added peace of mind, the UH8020S is backed by Uniden’s five year platinum warranty. Other advanced features include a microphone and a built-in large LCD backlit screen for easy viewing.
