Poor reception on your Uniden Radio could be due to several factors. First, ensure the antenna connection is secure. Try moving the antenna to a different location. If the programmed frequency is higher than 406MHz, a shorter antenna length may improve the reception. If you are in a fringe area, you might need an optional multi-band antenna.
What to do if Uniden BC 278CLT Radio weather scan won’t work?
If the weather scan on your Uniden Radio isn’t working, try these steps: Adjust the squelch to the threshold. Check the antenna connection. It is also possible that there are no active stations within range.
What to do if Uniden BC 278CLT Radio scan won’t stop?
If the scan on your Uniden Radio won’t stop, try the following: Adjust the squelch to the threshold. Check the antenna connection. Verify if many channels are locked out, as this reduces the chance of finding an active channel. Review each channel’s frequency to ensure it’s correct and no memory has been lost. It’s also possible that none of the programmed frequencies are active at the moment.
How to fix a Uniden BC 278CLT that won’t power up?
