I got a Uniden 510 xl it fits snug in my dash with no holes. That’s nice just what I wanted. It dead keys 4 ½ watts and swings to 15 with no problem. It didn’t take me long driving until I realized the receive on this radio is terrible. People I used to hear before I can no longer hear. I thought it was a problem with my antenna a Wilson 1000. I checked out the antenna cable and it has good continuity and the swrs are low. I hooked up a Midland 5001z and it works great. I just wish it would fit in my dash. Is there any way to get better receive from the uniden radio or should I look for something else? Maybe the receivers on these smaller radios aren't that great I don’t know. Any advice is appreciated.
