Introduction
Features
Your radio provides the following key features:
xx Submersible design
Complies with floating JIS8/IPX8 water-resistant
standards, which means the radio can be submerged in
1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes without damage.
## Notes:
The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled
and all rubber seals and bungs are well maintained
and correctly fitted. This means that the speaker
microphone bung is inserted, and the battery pack
(or case) and antenna are attached and securely
fastened.

After your radio is submerged in water, the sound
might be distorted. This is because there is still
water remaining in and around the speaker and
microphone. Just shake the radio to clear excess
water, and the sound should return to normal.
If your radio is exposured to salt water, clean it
thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before turning
it on.
The charger is not waterproof.
Memory scan mode
Lets you save channels to memory and monitor them in
quick succession.
Transmitter power level select
Lets you boost the transmitter power from 1 W to 2.5 or
6 W for added transmission distance.
Battery level display and low battery alert.
Dual and Triple Watch operation
These different watch modes let you monitor up to two
Coast Guard Distress/Hailing channels and one weather
channel along with one regular marine channel.
All marine VHF channels for the U.S., Canada, and
international waters
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) Weather Channel watch
Sounds a warning tone when a hazard alert is issued.
SOS Strobe
A high intensity strobe LED can be set to blink an SOS
pattern or to be steady on.
Temperature
Lets you display temperature in Farenheit or Celsius.
DSC
Lets you call other stations or groups using their unique
identification code.
GPS
Gives you the ability to save your current position as well

Weather
The NOAA weather channels now cooperate with the FCC to
alert you of other hazards besides weather (child abduction
alerts, nuclear, biological, etc.). In weather mode, the
radio monitors one of the ten NOAA weather channels. If a
weather alert signal is received in Weather Alert mode, the
radio sounds an alert tone and the display blinks.

Weather mode with Weather Alert Watch
If you activate Weather Alert Watch while operating in
weather mode, it operates as a type of “sleep mode:” the
radio stays on the weather channel and mutes the speaker.
If an alert is detected, the radio sounds an alert tone and turns
the speaker back on. This mode is very useful when you are
anchoring for the night but want to keep informed of hazards.
Weather mode with Triple Watch or Dual Watch
If you activate Triple Watch while operating in weather mode,
the radio checks channels 16 and 9 every few seconds; with

Setting Up the Hardware
Attaching the Antenna
The antenna detaches from the radio for easy shipping or
storage. To attach the antenna to your radio, screw it tightly onto
the anchor post at the top of the radio.
Installing the Battery
Your radio comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery; for
shipping safety, the battery is not installed at the factory. The
empty alkaline battery case is installed as a placeholder.
1. Insert the hook on the battery into
the notch at the top of the battery
compartment.
## Note: Each time you remove the
battery, check the rubber seal around
the battery compartment. Make sure
the seal is seated in the groove and
Uniden MHS135 Radio Owner’s Manual
E-17
there is no dirt or debris on it. If the seal looks worn or damaged,
contact customer service to order a replacement (see back
cover page for contact information).
2. Lower the battery until it rests
flat in the compartment.
3. Bring the battery latch up and
snap it into place.
Using Alkaline Batteries
The radio also comes with a battery case that holds four
AAA-type alkaline batteries (not included). You can use
alkaline batteries as a backup for the Li-Ion battery so you
can still use your radio while your Li-Ion battery is recharging.
For best performance, Uniden recommends using extrastrength alkaline batteries such as Duracell Ultra® batteries.
## NOTE: When using alkaline batteries, transmit power is
limited to a maximum of 2.5W.
Follow these steps to use the alkaline
battery case:
1. Hold the lower part of the case in one hand
with the three battery contacts facing
down. Use your thumb to hold the
notch on the lower part of the case.
2. With your other hand, grip the upper
part of the case and lift the cover open.
3. Align the batteries’ positive and negative terminals with
the drawing on the case and snap each battery into
place.
4. Insert the two hooks on the lower

MID, or LOW. The transmit power remains at the new
setting until you change it again.
## Note: Don’t forget to change the transmission setting back to
1 W when you move close to other stations.
Some channels (for example, channels 13 and 67) limit the
transmission power to 1 W. When you tune to a limitedpower channel, the radio automatically switches to 1 W. See
the channel lists starting on page E-23 for a list of powerrestricted channels.
Digital Selective Calling Features
What is DSC?
Digital Selective Calling (DSC) is a standard that allows you
to call other stations using their unique identification code
(the Maritime Mobile Service Identity or MMSI number), just
like you would call a phone number. To call another station,
just enter that station’s MMSI number and choose the voice
channel you want to talk on. The radio uses channel 70 to
transmit your MMSI number to the other station along with
E-24
Uniden MHS135 Radio Owner’s Manual
the voice channel you requested. If the other station accepts
your call, both radios automatically switch to the requested
voice channel so you can talk to the other station.
DSC provides a system for automated distress calls. At
the touch of a button, the radio can transmit your MMSI
number, the nature of your distress, and your current position
based on data from your GPS receiver. The radio repeats
the distress call every few minutes until it receives an
acknowledgement.
The DSC standard dedicates a VHF channel—channel 70—
to digital transmissions only. Since digital transmissions
require less bandwidth voice transmissions, channel 70
avoids the problems of busy voice channels.
Advanced DSC features
Your radio supports the following DSC features:

MMSI Numbers
In order to use DSC features, you must be assigned a User
MMSI number and program that number into your radio.
Other than the User MMSI number, there are two other kinds
of MMSI numbers: individual numbers for use by single boats
and group numbers for use by fleets, boating organizations,
event coordinators, etc.
You can get more information on MMSI numbers at these
resources:
xx The dealer where you purchased the radio
xx Recreational boaters can obtain an MMSI number from
the Boat Owner’s Association of the U.S. (http://www.
boatus.com/mmsi/ or call 800-536-1536) or Sea Tow
Services International (http://seatow.com/boating_safety/
mmsi.asp)
xx Commercial boaters need a ship station license to get
an MMSI number. For more information, visit the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) website at http://
wireless.fcc.gov/marine/ fctsht14.html.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Due to its rugged design, your radio requires very
little maintenance. However, it is a precision electronic
instrument, so you should follow a few precautions:
xx If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except
in an emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective
antenna may cause further radio damage.
xx You are responsible for continued FCC technical
compliance of your radio.
xx You should arrange for periodic performance checks with
your Uniden dealer.

Regulations and Safety Warnings
WARNING! Read this information before using the radio.
Maritime Radio Services Operation
Warning! This transmitter will operate on channels/
frequencies that have restricted use in the United States.
The channel assignments include frequencies assigned for
exclusive use of the U.S. Coast Guard, use in Canada, and
use in international waters. Operation on these frequencies
without proper authorization is strictly forbidden. See pages
E-23 through E-29 for tables of the available channels and
their uses. If you are still not certain which channels to use,
see the FCC maritime radio page at the FCC website
(http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/) or contact the FCC Call
Center at 1-888-CALL-FCC. For individuals requiring a
license, such as commercial users, you should obtain a
license application from your nearest FCC field office (for US
users) or Industry Canada (for Canadian users).
Basic Radio Guidelines
You should familiarize yourself with the rules on marine
radios and be aware of which rules apply to your boat.
Complete guidelines for all ship and marine radio types can
be found at the US Coast Guard website under the topic
Radio Info for Boaters (the direct link is
http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/marcomms/boater.htm).
Here are a few guidelines that affect nearly all boaters.
xx If you have a VHF radio on your boat, you must maintain
a watch on channel 16 (156.800 MHz) whenever the
radio is not being used to communicate. Starting in 2004,
if a radio is carried, it must be on and set to channel 16
whenever your boat is underway.
xx If you hear a distress call, wait a few minutes to let a
shore station or Coast Guard vessel respond. If no other
Uniden MHS135 Radio Owner’s Manual
E-59
station has responded after 5 minutes, you must respond
to the distress call.
xx Do not make false mayday or distress calls as a prank or
to test your radio. (This is essentially like making a false
9-1-1 call; you may be subject to fines.)
FCC/Industry Canada Information
xx Certification: FCC Part 80 or RSS-182
xx Output Power: 6W
xx Emission: 16K0F3E
xx Transmitter Frequency Range: 156.025-157.425 MHz
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not
cause harmful interference.
Unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment
may void compliance with the FCC Rules. Any change
or modification must be approved in writing by Uniden.
Changes or modifications not approved by Uniden could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Exposure Information
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines
are consistent with the safety standard previously set by
both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design
of the radio complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards.
Never allow children to operate the radio without adult
supervision and the knowledge of the following guidelines.
WARNING! It is up to the user to properly operate this radio
transmitter to insure safe operation. Please adhere to the
following:
xx Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
E-60
Uniden MHS135 Radio Owner’s Manual
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could impair call quality, damage the radio, or violate
FCC regulations.
xx Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna. If a
damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a
minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer
for a replacement antenna.
Body-Worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations
using the supplied belt-clip. To maintain compliance with
FCC RF exposure requirements, body-worn operations are
restricted to the supplied belt-clip. For hand-held operation,
the radio should be held 1 inch from the user’s face. The use
of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may
not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should
be avoided. For more information about RF exposure, please
visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.
Lithium Ion Battery Warning
This equipment contains a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery.
The rechargeable Lithium Ion battery contained in this
equipment may explode if disposed of in a fire.
Do not short-circuit the battery.
Do not charge the rechargeable battery used in this equipment in any charger other than the one specified in the
owner’s manual. Using another charger may damage the
battery or cause the battery to explode.
NOTE: Li-Ion batteries must be recycled or disposed of
properly.
Avoid exposing the battery (whether attached to the radio
or not) to direct sunlight, heated cars, or temperatures
below -4°F (-20°C) or above +140°F (+60°C). Exposing the
chemical contained within the battery pack to temperatures
above +140°F (+60°C) may cause the battery to rupture, fail,
or reduce performance.
