Uniden made a name for Cobra when it
slapped the Cobra 29 faceplate over this chassis. Today, the Cobra 29 is only
a former shadow of itself (quality-wise), while the Uniden PC-76 keeps on
talking (quality took a dive when 29’s started coming out of China.
Pre-China 29’s, including the 29xlr are solid rigs) Except when I’m on the road SSB
is the mode for me, and if I used AM primarily - this mobile would be all I
ever needed for quality communications. Nothing is left out. as the PC-76 includes Instant Chanel 9, Mic and RF Gain
controls, and a combo S-RF-SWR meter. The review unit I demo’d
worked just great, and I received excellent audio reports from other
operators. The noise blanker that Uniden has in their units is second-to-none
- if this NB/ANL circuit can’t contain your noise, it's likely no other
radio will. If you're content with AM-only
conversations, then this rig is for you. Uniden has another version of this
model with Weather Channel reception, and a new version with backlit
controls. If you're into AM and SSB, then consider the Uniden Grant-XL. 73 Woody * The 76 series was discontinued and
replaced by the PC78 line |
