Introduction
Welcome to the exciting world of CB radio communication! Your Uniden
Citizens Band Mobile Transceiver represents the highest quality communications
device designed for use in the Citizens Band Radio Service. This powerful unit
operates on any of me 40 AM frequencies authorized by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC),
- Dual noise reducn'on circuitry — Noise Blanker and Automatic Noise Limiter.
- Multi-function Meter —— Measures the incoming Signal Strength, RF transmitter
output power as well as SWR.
0 RF GAH‘J control —— Provides optimum receiving capability.
- Adjustable MIC GAIN control.
0 DELTA TUNE — Enhances receiver operations. Also can be used to help
minimize adjacent channel interference.
- Public Address System capability
Weather Channel monitoring.

Service.

Volume Control —Tum VOLUME clockwise to turn the radio on. Use VOLUME to
adjust the volume level of the audio.
Squelch Control — Adjust SQUELCH to eliminate background noise during the 3/0
absence of a signal. Turn the control fully counterclockwise then slowly rotate it
back clockwise until all noise disappears. At this setting any signal must be
slightly stronger man the background noise to “break squelch" and be heard.
Further clockwise rotation increases the threshold level below which weak signals
are not heard. At the maximum clockwise setting, only the strong signals can
”break squelch" and be heard.
Mike Gain Control —- Use MIC GAIN to adjust the microphone gain during
transmitting At the maximum setting. you have full talk power during transmitting
while holding the microphone at a comfortable distance. In the PA (Public
Address) mode, this control adjusts the output volume of the PA speaker.
RF Gain" ' ,—-To adjust RF GAIN, turn
the RF GAIN knob 4A clockwise to the ‘MAX' position.
Turn counterclockwise to reduce incoming signal gain
when a signal is strong enough to saturate your

The selected channel is displayed on the LED readout. directly above the channel
selector knob.

Installation
Mounting the Radio Bracket
1. First select an ideal location in your vehicle to mount the PC76XLW. Make
sure the location will not interfere with your driving. in a passenger car, the
ideal installation is undemeath the dashboard on the passenger side.
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the radio and use it as a template for
marking the location of the mounting screws. (Note: If there are screws
already holding the dashboard, you can use die same screw holes to mount the
bracket in its place.)
3. Drill the necessary holes and secure the mounting bracket in place using the
screws provided
4. Mount the radio to the bracket only after the wiring has been connected to the
rear panel and the microphone hanger has been installed.
Mounting the Microphone Hanger
Mount the microphone hanger to the side the radio. Mounting holes are provided near
die microphOne connector and the other side of the unit. Use the screws supplied. You
can also mount the hanger on the dashboard if preferred.
Connecting the Power Cord
L Check the vehicle battery connections to determine which banery terminal
(positive or negative) is grounded to the engine block or chassis. Most of
today’s automobiles are negative ground Kyour automobile is negative
grain-id, follow steps 2 and 3.
2. Connect the RED wire of the DC power cord to the accessory contact in your
vehicle's +118 VDC fuse box.
1 Connect the BLACK wire of the DC power cord to the negative side of the
automobile (usually the chassis).
Note: In positive ground automobiles, the RED wire connects to the chassis
and the BLACK wire connects to the accessory contact in the fuse box
4. Plug the DC power cord into the POWER jack on the rear panel.
Connecting the Antenna
Connect the CB antenna plug to the ANT jack on the rear panel. (For more information if
on antenna installation, please refer to the instruction guide that came with your /
antenna) ( (7
