uhf radio problems

[gimmemud]

Hi guys i've got a uniden uh095sx uhf/am radio and i can't recieve in uhf. If i push the mon button you get a whole lot of noise and when someone speaks you can hear them but at no other time. Anyone got any clues on whats wrong? am seems fine

[Big-AL]

do you have the static dial thingy turned right down? (maybe a squelch dial??)

[gimmemud]

Nah automatic squelch and can choose 3 options but doesn't work on either one. very gay

Mine did the same thing... I sent it back to uniden under warranty, they sent it back fixed saying that had adjusted it on their test bench, dont know what they did but it works now!!!

so how do you find it, am looking at that radio too,
having both am as well as uhf in one set makes it easy to fit in the 4x4...

Did you get this sorted out? From someone who fixes radios for a job it sounds to me like the squelch frequency generator system has drifted off. Squelch works by broadcasting a specific tone (inaudibly - usually around 150hz) that trips a relay and sets the receive side of the radio in operation. By pressing the mon button you are effective bypassing this circuit and turning the speaker on. The adjustment that northland_pajero talked about would have to reset the squelch tone - an extremely easy fix when you have the right gear!

check the CSST (or similar), Make sure the code is set to 0 or off, unless the sending radio is set to the same code your radio will filter it out

A BIG friggin stick also helps.

Sorry this is of no use to you really, just a last resort.
