| Deltatune? What can I use it for? Hello all, I have a Uniden PC78, with a Deltatune knob. It seems to make no difference where I set the knob, either completely off or all the way on. I can hear just the same. And others report no difference in my transmissions. So what does this knob do? Is it useful for anything? Maybe I haven't been in the right environment for it to actually make a difference? Do any of you use it at all? Or do you just set it in the middle somewhere and leave it? Thanks!  |

| . Leave it in the middle. It's a useless item on a CB. It can help when someone else is off frequency. But, that's generally not a big issue with CB's. Especially since they are designed to receive slightly off frequency transmissions. If you had a real radio. It would be called receive increment tuning, or RIT for short.

| Its a filler knob for the out dated face of your radio,there is no use for it with the new digital format. That slot is commonly used for a Connex Echo control.

| Actually, I'll be completely honest, that's why I bought the PC78. I wanted a full featured CB, you know, one with a bunch of knobs. Since I got a new truck, I wanted to get something that looks a bit better when it is mounted. I have been a CB guy for twenty years, but never put much money into it. In my old truck, I am running a Sears 40-channel with SSB. I never find anyone to talk to on SSB, and the entire thing is pretty big. But it works like a champ! So I never upgraded. The only reason I bought a new radio, was to mount it in my new rig. |

| You control whether you turn the knobs to the left or right and thats ALL! Cheap radios with cheap hack tunes plugged to a crybaby is never a good thing. just mentioning . . . . . . Quote:
