Contains the LCD, keys and speaker. Some of the keys have two functions, their normal function and a alternate function depending on which screen is being displayed (which mode the radio is in). | Fig 1 |
Built on the same rugged chassis as other Uniden PC78s, the LTW is the night driver's radio of choice. Monitor CB and weather communication with seven NOAA channels and tone-based weather alerts. The S/RF/SWR meter, channel indicator and radio controls are backlit for convenient night use.
The knob also has a push button function whose function also depends on the mode of the radio. In most modes pressing the knob will change it's function to a Volume control. At other times it's equivalent to pressing Enter (PgmE). This later use allows you to both navigate through a menu and make selections using only the knob, very handy.

Banks
The bank numbers at the bottom of the LCD screen can have two different meanings.
When in Service Scan (FuncSrch/Svc) the numbers show the type of service being looked for.
(1: Police, 2: Fire/Em, 3: Ham, 4:Marine, 5:Railroad, 6: Civil Air, 7:Mil Air, 8:CB, 9:FRS/GMRS/MURS, 0:Racing)
Pressing any of the numbers 0 - 9) during Service Search will toggle Off or On that service.
In most cases they refer to groups of 50 Channels. There's no requirement that a bank be inside any frequency range, modulation type &Etc. You can use they as you will. A common use is to put similar types of frequencies together, for example State VHF low band FM highway patrol, VHF & UHF FM sheriff and local police all in one bank. So if you're going to fill in the banks by the type of service then it would be a good idea to use the existing bank numbering, i.e. Bank1 for police, &Etc.

Computer
Installing the file BC125AT_SS_V1_03_00 loads the program but not the USB driver.
The driver file BC125AT_CDC_XP.inf needs to be placed in the C:WINDOWSINF folder. | |
Now when the radio is connected by USB cable the New Hardware Wizard finds the radio and installs the driver. | |
In My ComputerPropertiesHardwareDevice Manager the BC125AT shows up with a COM port number 21 in my case. | |
After starting the BC125AT SS program go to ToolsCOM port setting and use Auto Detect or manually set the COM port number. Auto worked for me. | |
Here's the Bank 1 display after Reset & I've only entered a local 2 meter ham frequency. To get this this display use: ScannerRead from Scanner. |
