E-2 Uniden Atlantis 290/295 Radio Owner’s ManualINTRODUCTIONYour Atlantis 290/295 radio combines a powerful GMRS radio with a marine VHF radio featuring all NOAA weather channels.Marine (VHF) mode provides two-way ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore communications.  xMarine VHF channels (US, INTernational, and CANada) xDual and Triple Watch Operation. These different watch modes let you monitor up to two Coast Guard Distress/Hailing channels along with one regular marine channel. xEmergency 16/9 Channel Monitoring. The Atlantis 290/295 can scan one or both of these emergency channels regularly within normal scanning cycles. WX mode provides monitoring of weather channels and the weather watch channels. x9 weather channels available for monitoring. xNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Channel watch. Sounds a warning tone when a hazard alert is issued. xWeather Alert Watch mode. Mutes the radio while it monitors a preset Weather channel. It sounds an alarm if there are broadcasts on that channel. Put the radio in the charger to keep power on. GMRS/FRS MODE FEATURESThis band allows you to communicate on land with other GMRS-capable radios. x22 GMRS/FRS radio channels x142 Sub Codes xVibrate Setting. In GMRS mode, turn Vibrate on and off
E-3Uniden Atlantis 290/295 Radio Owner’s Manualthrough the menus (see page E-14). xGMRS/FRS Two-Way Communication. These bands allow you to communicate with other radios that are tuned to the same band and sub code. Select the channel number/sub code and transmit. Any other radios set to the same band and sub code will receive your transmissions and can respond. GMRS Licensing RequirementThe radio operates on the General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) frequencies when using Channels 1 - 7 and Channels 15 - 22. You must have a GMRS license issued by the Federal Communications Commission to legally use these channels. For licensing information and application forms, visit the FCC online at www.fcc.gov/wtb/uls or call the FCC hotline at 1-800-418-3676. If you have any questions, upi can contact the FCC direct at 1-888-225-5322. No license is required to operate on Channels 8 - 14 or operation on any channel in Canada.COMMON FEATURES xMemory Save and Scan Mode. Lets you save channels to memory and monitor them in quick succession.  xTransmitter power level select. Lets you boost the transmitter power from LO to MID to HI for added transmission distance.Note: Only Low power is available for FRS channels  8 - 14. xWeather Alert Watch Mode. Scans weather channels while you are in Marine or GMRS mode. xBoost. Allows you to instantly transmit at full power. xBattery level display and low battery alert. xBattery Save. Automatic function that turns RX power off at regular intervals. It turns RX power back on when the radio receives a transmission or is transmitting.  xKey Lock On/Off.

The radio can be submerged in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes without damage.Notes:The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled and all rubber seals and bungs are well maintained and correctly tted. This means that the speaker/microphone bung is inserted and the battery pack (or case) is securely fastened.After your radio is submerged in water, you might notice that the sound is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in and around the speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to  clear excess water and the sound should return to normal.If your radio is exposured to salt water, clean it thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before turning it on.The charger is not waterproof.

However, it is a precision electronic instrument, so you should follow a few precautions: xIf the antenna has been damaged, do not transmit except in an emergency situation. Transmitting with a defective antenna may cause further radio damage. xYou are responsible for continued FCC technical compliance of your radio. xYou should arrange for periodic performance checks with your Uniden dealer.COMMON QUESTIONSProblem Things to TryThe radio won’t turn on. Charge the radio.The power LED on the charger doesn’t turn on. - Don’t use the charger when the ambient temperature is below 41° F (5° C) or above 104° F (40° C). - Make sure the charging contacts on the radio and charger are clean. - Replace the battery.
E-24 Uniden Atlantis 290/295 Radio Owner’s ManualProblem Things to TryThe radio won’t transmit. - Make sure you are not in weather or scan mode. - Make sure you are not trying to transmit on a receive-only channel or transmit at the wrong power level for this channel (see the channel lists starting on page E-26). - Check the battery power level; if it’s low, charge the battery before trying to transmit. - Make sure the duration of each transmission is less than 5 minutes.I can’t hear anything from the speaker.Adjust the squelch level; it is probably too high.Noise comes out of the speaker all the timeAdjust the squelch level; it is probably too low.I can transmit, but no one can hear me. - MRN/VHF: Check your UIC channel settings. Does the area you are in use different channel assignments? - GMRS/FRS: Check the sub codes.I’m not getting hazard alerts.Make sure Weather Alert Watch is turned on. The display ashes, and I don’t know why.The channel number on the display will ash if the radio is in a watch mode or in scan mode. Try turning off scanning, Weather Alert Watch, Triple Watch, or Dual Watch (see page E-19).Where can I nd my radio’s serial number?The serial number is on a plate inside the battery compartment.

This transmitter will operate on channels/frequencies that have restricted use in the United States. The channel assignments include frequencies assigned for exclusive use of the U.S. Coast Guard, use in Canada, and use in international waters. Operation on these frequencies without proper authorization is strictly forbidden. See pages page E-26 through page E-33 for tables of the available channels and their uses. If you are still not certain which channels to use, see the FCC maritime radio page at the FCC website  (http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/) or contact the FCC Call Center at 1-888-CALL-FCC. For individuals requiring a license, such as commercial users, you should obtain a license application from your nearest FCC eld ofce (for US users) or Industry Canada (for Canadian users). BASIC RADIO GUIDELINESYou should familiarize yourself with the rules on marine radios and be aware of which rules apply to your boat. Complete guidelines for all ship and marine radio types can be found at the US Coast Guard website under the topic Radio Info for Boaters (the direct link is  http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/marcomms/boater.htm). Here are a few guidelines that affect nearly all boaters. xIf you have a VHF radio on your boat, you must maintain a watch on channel 16 (156.800 MHz) whenever the radio is not being used to communicate. Starting in 2004, if a radio is carried, it must be on and set to channel 16 whenever your boat is underway. xIf you hear a distress call, wait a few minutes to let a WARNING! Read this information before using the radio.
