Choose it from the radio modes used by the intended contacts, vehicle installation space and required operator controls.
The Bearcat 980SSB provides AM and upper/lower single-sideband operation across the documented 40 CB channels. A seven-color LCD, frequency display, SWR calibration, RF/mic gain, talkback and NOAA weather functions support the listed feature set. USB/LSB are operating modes, not a claim of extra authorized CB frequencies; FM is not represented for this exact model.
