Featuring the same bells and whistles as the popular 880, the 980 adds Single Side Band capability and a SSB clarifier.

The included six-pin microphone will fit comfortably in your hand, and the extra long mic cord allows you to talk from anywhere in your cab.

Fantastic!
Review by Eagle

The sound is great! The best SSB I have heard! Why? Well, look at the design and manufacture of this radio. It is not an old modified design and roughly assembled in some backyard electronics company - like my previous Galaxy 959. It is a new design using modern design practices, surface mount technology and minimal internal wires controlled by a microprocessor. The oscillator is stable, the operating paramaters are as they should be and high reliabilty. This is the SSB of the future. Well done Uniden! (Posted on April 11, 2013)

Nice radios but...
Review by Triple Nickel

Overall Rating

I'm very pleased that Uniden has gotten back into the CB hobby and that they brought out a new mobile with SSB capability.

However, I would be even happier if they would bring out an all mode base station AND even more pleased if they would bring out a CB with a detachable front panel. Most vehicles today have center consoles and limited space. CB mobiles really have changed little since the early 1970s vintage sets. Cars are half the size and have virtually no space for CB set. I guess the manufacturers think that we're all 18 wheelers or own pickups. Ain't so. My 2008 Ford Taurus X has no space and my wife's 2013 Lincoln MkZ has even less space.

Are Uniden, Cobra and Midland unaware of what people are driving in the 21st century? Do they think that it's still 1977? (Posted on February 16, 2013)

Great CB

This is a great SSB CB. Sounds great on AM SSB. If you want a good SSB radio, you will like this one. The beep when you push a button or change the channel didn't bother me as some people complained about this function, but honestly i didn't think it was that bad. (Posted on November 13, 2012)
