Uniden X80 – 5W Compact UHF CB Radio with Flip LCD & Dual Speakers (80 Channels) + Uniden AT500BK 5.5dBi Antenna Kit
Next-gen trade-quality comms for truckies, 4WDers, and overlanders – rugged, vehicle-swappable power that fits anywhere and sounds everywhere!
The Uniden X80 redefines compact UHF CB with a trade-built powerhouse delivering 5W crystal-clear 477 MHz coverage across all 80 channels, engineered for Australia's punishing roads and NZ tracks. Dual speakers in the mic and base blast through cab noise, while the flip LCD (with large icons and 7-color backlight) adapts to any mount—reverse it for overhead installs or match your dash vibe. Quick-release bracket lets you hop vehicles in seconds, and 12/24V compatibility fits cars, utes, semis, or RVs. From highway convoys to outback base camps, one-touch controls, advanced scanning, and Japanese precision keep you linked without compromise.
Backed by Uniden's 5-year warranty and rooted in 1966 innovation – the pro's choice for reliable, no-fuss UHF.
