Introduction
Features
Your radio provides the following key features:
ŠŠ Submersible design. Complies with floating JIS8/IPX8
water-resistant standards, which means the radio can
be submerged in 1.5 meters of water for 1 hour without
damage.
##Notes:
The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled
and all rubber seals and sealing plugs are well
maintained and correctly fitted. This means that the
speaker microphone is attached or the sealing plug is
fitted, and the battery pack (or tray) and antenna are
attached and securely fastened.
After your radio is submerged in water, you might
notice that the sound is distorted. This is because
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
E-1
there is still water remaining in and around the
speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to
clear excess water, and the sound will return to
normal.
If your radio is exposed to salt water, clean it
thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before turning
it on.
The charger is not waterproof.
ŠŠ Memory Scan mode. Lets you save channels to memory
and monitor them in quick succession.
ŠŠ Transmitter power level select/Boost. Lets you boost
the transmitter power from 1W to 2.5W or 6W for added
transmission distance.
ŠŠ Battery level display and low battery alert.
ŠŠ Dual and Triple Watch operation. These different Watch
modes let you monitor up to one Coast Guard Distress/
Hailing channel and one weather channel along with one
regular marine channel.
ŠŠ All marine VHF channels for the U.S., Canada, and
international waters.
ŠŠ Battery Save. The Battery Save feature automatically
turns off RX power at regular intervals to save battery
power.
ŠŠ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) Weather Channel watch. Sounds a warning
tone when a hazard alert is issued.
ŠŠ SOS Strobe/Flashlight. A high intensity strobe LED can
be set to blink an SOS pattern or to be steady on.
ŠŠ Emergency 16/9 Channel monitoring. Set unit to scan
one or both of these emergency channels regularly within
normal scanning cycles.
E-2
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
ŠŠ Key Lock. Locks keys to prevent accidentally changing
channels or entering data.
ŠŠ Nine weather channels.
ŠŠ Selectable Volume (0 - 9) and Squelch (0 - 3) levels.

monitors one of the nine NOAA weather channels. If any type
of alert is received, the radio sounds an alert tone and the
display blinks.

cancel Weather and return to the previous marine channel,
press the WX/ALERT button again. The last active weather
channel displays the next time you access Weather mode.
##You cannot transmit while in Weather mode.
When the radio detects a WX Alert signal, it sounds a siren
tone three times. Press any button to turn off the tone.
Weather mode with Weather Alert Watch
Because Weather mode already monitors the weather
channels, you don’t need Weather Alert Watch to check
the weather channel every seven seconds. 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.

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 Li-Ion Polymer battery;
for shipping safety, the battery is not installed at the factory.
The empty alkaline battery tray is installed as a placeholder.
1) Insert the tabs on the battery into the notches at the top of
the battery compartment.
##Each time you remove the battery, check the rubber seal
around the battery compartment. Make sure the seal is
seated in the groove and 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 the Alkaline Battery Tray
The radio also comes with an alkaline battery tray that holds
four AAA-type alkaline batteries (not included). You can use
alkaline batteries as a backup for the Li-Ion Polymer battery
so you can still use your radio while your Li-Ion Polymer
battery is recharging.
E-16
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
CAUTION: If you are using your radio in a cold-weather
environment, Uniden recommends using nonrechargeable Lithium batteries.
##When using alkaline batteries, transmit power is limited to
a maximum of 2.5W.
Follow these steps to use the alkaline battery tray:
1) Hold the lower part of the tray in one hand with the three
battery contacts facing down. Use your thumb to hold the
notch on the lower part of the tray.
2) With your other hand, grip the
upper part of the tray and lift the
cover open.
3) Align the batteries’ positive and
negative terminals with the drawing
on the tray and snap each battery
into place.
4) Insert the two hooks on the lower
part
of the tray into the notches on the
cover; close the cover. (The cover fits
snugly but you should not have to
force it closed.)
5) Install the alkaline battery tray in
your radio just as you do the Li-Ion
Polymer battery (see page E-15).
WARNING! The tray is designed to prevent the
accidental charging of alkaline batteries. Never
use alkaline batteries in the radio without the
alkaline battery tray. Do not attempt to modify the
battery tray design.
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
E-17
Mounting the Charger
You can mount the charger on any flat surface.
1) Use the two holes at the base of the
charger as a template to mark the drill
holes.
2) Using a 1/8-inch (or 3 mm) drill bit, drill
two holes 1/2 inch (13mm) deep.
3) Use the provided screws to attach the
charger to the surface.
Charging the Battery
Your radio includes a charger and a
rechargeable battery pack. Place your radio in
the charger with the display facing forward.
Make sure that the CHARGE LED on the
charger turns orange.
Cautions:
ŠŠUse only the battery and charger supplied with this radio.
Using a different charger or battery can damage the radio
and create a risk of fire or shock.
ŠŠThe charger is not waterproof. If the charger falls into the
water, unplug it before attempting to remove it from the
water. After you remove the charger from the water, please
contact our Customer Care Line.
ŠŠWipe off dirt or shake water from your radio before placing
in the charger if your radio gets dirty or wet.
E-18
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
Important notes on charging the battery
ŠŠ Charge the battery fully before using the radio. When the
battery is completely charged, the CHARGE LED turns
green.
ŠŠ Don’t use the charger when the ambient temperature is
below 0° C (32° F) or above 45° C (113° F).
ŠŠ If the radio is powered down, the battery can charge in
about seven hours. (If the radio is powered on, the battery
takes longer to charge.)
Attaching the Belt Clip
To attach the belt clip:
1) Rotate the belt clip so that the finger
indentation is towards the top of the
radio.
2) Align the center of the clip with the anchor
post.
3) Place the clip on the post and slide the
clip upwards until it clicks into place.
To remove the belt clip:
1) Rotate the clip so that the finger
indentation is towards the bottom
of the radio.
2) Slide the clip up until it comes free
of the anchor post.

Using Your Radio
Turning It On
Press and hold POWER for at least two seconds to turn the
radio on. Press and hold POWER again to turn the unit off.
Setting It Up
Even though you can change your radio’s settings at any
time, you will probably want to establish initial settings after
you have turned it on for the first time. You will adjust some
of these settings on an as-needed basis, but some settings
might only need to be set once.
Changing the volume
To change the speaker volume, press VOL/SQ to enter
Volume Setting mode. O (for volume level 0 - 9) displays.
Press CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN to increase or
decrease the volume levels. Press VOL/SQ to save.
Setting the Squelch level
The MHS126 recognizes signals as transmissions if they
exceed a signal strength threshold.

Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
Adjusting the squelch sets this threshold level. Increasing
squelch requires a signal to be stronger to be seen as a
transmission. If you set the squelch too high, you will risk not
receiving transmissions that are lower than that threshold.
Reducing the squelch allows weaker signals to be accepted.
However, if you lower the squelch too much, you will hear
white noise all the time
While listening to a channel, press and hold VOL/SQ to enter
Squelch Setting mode.The SQUELCH Level (S0)number
displays on the LCD. Press CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN to
increase or decrease the squelch levels (0 - 3). Press VOL/SQ
to save the setting.
##Note: Setting the squelch level too high may prevent
you from hearing weaker transmissions. If you are having
difficulty hearing a transmission, try setting the squelch
level lower.
Reading volume and squelch level on battery icon
When you adjust the volume or squelch levels, the 4 bars on
the battery icon display according to the volume and squelch
levels. For example, two bars display for VOL levels 3 and 4,
and Squelch level 2.

ŠŠ Some marine channels and Weather mode channels are
Receive Only. See page E-27 for a list of receive-only
channels.
##There is a 5 minute limit for continuous transmission.
After 5 minutes the unit goes into a PTT error condition;
the timeout tone sounds, TX displays, and the channel
indicators blink.
Boosting the transmission power
In most situations, 1W transmission power is all you need.
If you find yourself far away from other stations and have
trouble getting a response, you may need to boost the
transmission power from 1W to 2.5W or 6W.
##Alkaline battery boost is limited to 2.5W
##Channels 75 and 76 are 1W only and do not have power
override capability.
1) Select the channel you want to transmit on.
2) Press L/M/H to switch to the next transmission power level
(for example, from 1W to 2.5W; from 2.5W to 6W, or from
6W back to 1W).
3) The display shows the new transmission power. The
transmit power remains at the new setting until you
change it again.
##Don’t forget to change the transmission setting back to
1W when you move close to other stations.
ŠŠ Some channels (for example, channels 13 and 67) limit
the transmission power to 1W. When you tune to a limitedpower channel, the radio automatically switches to 1W.
See page E-27 for a list of power-restricted channels.

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:
ŠŠ If the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except
in an emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective
antenna may cause further radio damage.
ŠŠ You are responsible for continued FCC technical
compliance of your radio.

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 page E-31 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.
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.
If you hear a distress call, wait a few minutes to let a shore station or
Coast Guard vessel respond. If no other station has responded after 5
minutes, you must respond to the distress call.
E-38
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
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 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:
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the radio,
or violate FCC regulations.
Uniden MHS126 Radio Owner’s Manual
E-39
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.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, the radio
must be used with a maximum duty cycle not exceeding 50% in a typical
push-to-talk radio use time. DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total
radio use time.
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 handheld 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.
