UHF182X 80 Channel UHF Citizen Band Radio
OR019523 - UHF182X user manual_09-17-20.indd 1 2020/9/17 11:22:43
This unit complies with all relevant Australian
and New Zealand approval requirements
AS/NZS 4365:2011
When a new narrowband radio receives a transmission from an older wideband radio the speech may sound loud
and distorted – simply adjust your radio volume for the best listening performance. When an older wideband radio
receives a signal from a new narrowband radio the speech may sound quieter - simply adjust your radio volume for
best listening performance. When operating a narrowband radio or Channel 41 - 80 interference is possible from
wideband radios transmitting on high power or on adjacent frequency.
The issues described above are not a fault of the radio but a consequence of mixed use of wideband and narrowband
radios.

but not always clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such
as below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where
you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn
your radio OFF near electrical blasting caps or in a “blasting
area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two way radios.” Obey all
signs and instructions.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Nearlyeveryelectronicdeviceissusceptibletoelectromagnetic
interference (EMI). To avoid the possibility of electromagnetic
interference and/or compatibility conicts, turn off your radio

Installation of your Oricom Radio
Fitting the Controller Speaker Microphone
The controller speaker microphone uses a 6-pin telephone style plug
and socket:
1. Position the microphone plug so the plastic ap faces upward, and
insert the plug into the socket until it ‘clicks’.
2. Gently press the rubber boot into the hole surrounding the socket
so that the slot around the boot ts neatly inside the rim of the entry
hole.
Disconnecting the Controller Speaker Microphone
It is recommended that the Controller Speaker Microphone be left
permanently connected to the radio, but if it must be disconnected,
proceed as follows:
1. Lift the rubber boot and the lip of the raised area on the front panel.
2. Ease the rubber boot out of the cable entry hole and slide it along the
cable away from the front panel.
3. Identify the plug locking lever, and move the lever towards the plug
body. At the same time gently pull the plug from the socket.

Installation of your Oricom Radio
CAUTION
This radio is designed for operation on a 12 Volt battery
system. It should not be connected directly to a 24 Volt
system.
When installing your radio in your vehicle, check that
during installation you do not damage any wiring or vehicle
components that may be hidden around the mounting
position.
Ensure the installation does not interfere with the operation of
the vehicle and meets all regulatory and safety retirements for
accessories tted to your vehicle.
For optimum performance, your radio needs to be installed
correctly. If you are unsure about how to install your radio, we
suggest you have your radio professionally installed by a UHF
specialist or Auto electrician. When installing the radio, avoid
mounting it close to heaters or air conditioners. Never press
the PTT button before connecting the antenna to the radio.
Wiring Methods
There are two possible wiring congurations for connecting to the
vehicles power supply.
A. Radio stays ON when the ignition is switched OFF
Connect the radio’s negative (black) lead to the vehicle chassis, or
directly to the battery’s negative terminal.
Connect the radio’s positive (red) lead via the 3 Amp fuse to the
battery’s positive terminal. Alternatively, the positive lead could be
connected at the fuse box at a point that has DC Power continuously
available (preferably the battery side of the ignition switch) via the 3
Amp fuse.
B. Radio turns OFF with the ignition switch
Connect the radio’s negative (black) lead to the vehicle’s chassis, or
directly to the battery’s negative terminal.

Installation of your Oricom Radio
The radios positive (red) lead should connect to an accessory point in
the vehicle’s fuse box via the 3 Amp fuse.
Antenna information
The antenna (not supplied) is of critical importance to maximise
your output power and receiver sensitivity.
A poorly installed, inferior quality antenna, or one not designed
for the correct frequency band, will give poor performance. You
should only purchase an antenna designed for the 477MHz
frequency band.
Antenna installation
To obtain maximum performance from the radio, select a high quality
antenna and mount it in a good location.
Never press the PTT before connecting an antenna to the radio.
Optional accessories
If required, you may install an external (8 ohm, Minimum 5W power)
speaker tted with a 3.5mm plug (not supplied).
Depending on the installation, it may be necessary to use an external
speaker (not supplied) to give improved volume and clarity. This can be
plugged into the external speaker (SP) socket on the rear of the unit.
