1.OFF/ON VOLUME: To turn the transceiver on, rotate this control clockwise past click. To turn the transceiver off, rotate the control counterclockwise past click. Rotate the control clockwise for a comfortable audio level.

2.SQUELCH: The Squelch control is normally set to a position which eliminates undesired background noise with no signal present. With the audio adjusted to a satisfactory level, rotate the Squelch control clockwise to the point where the sound from the speaker is cut off. In this position, there will be no sound from the speaker until a signal is received. In order to hear weak signals, it may be necessary to rotate the Squelch control counterclockwise, allowing some back- ground noise to be heard.

3.PA SWITCH (on SQUELCH control): Full counterclockwise rotation of the squelch control engages the PA function. The PA function should not be used unless an external speaker is connected. In the squelch (or CB) position, the PA function is disabled and the radio will transmit and receive on the selected channel.

4.MODE SELECTOR: This switch selects AM, USB, or LSB mode of operation. This selector changes the mode of operation of both transmitter and receiver simultaneously. Set the selector to the mode on which you wish to com- municate.

The Uniden GRANT is a notable citizen band (CB) transceiver that has captured the attention of radio enthusiasts and operators alike. Known for its versatility and reliability, this model stands out in the crowded world of CB radios. Ideal for both personal and professional use, the Uniden GRANT offers a plethora of features that cater to various communication needs.

The channel selection is straightforward, facilitated by a user-friendly knob that enables quick navigation through the options.

In addition to its extensive channel range, the GRANT includes several advanced technologies that enhance its performance.

Moreover, the radio features a built-in PA system, enabling users to broadcast messages through an external speaker. This feature is particularly beneficial for applications such as directing traffic or communicating with people at a distance without the need for a separate microphone.

In terms of ease of use, the Uniden GRANT offers a bright LCD display that clearly shows the selected channel and other vital information, such as signal strength and battery status. This display is complemented by backlit controls, ensuring visibility in low-light conditions.
