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. Users can also choose from seven backlit display colours to suit personal preferences
and lighting scenarios.
