Rino 750 AUS UHF CB Fault - Channel 40
Posted: Wed Sep 28, 2022 3:43 am
Rino 750 AUS UHF CB radio has a long standing product issue and Channel 40 remains unusable.
UHF Channel 40 is the primary vehicle Road/Highway channel in Australia, and commonly used for vehicle communication and safety. It is also used for emergency contact by walkers to any nearby vehicles in remote areas where designated emergency channel monitoring is typically out of range.
Selecting Channel 40 emits a constant noise and indicates reception regardless of the circumstances.
Garmin have acknowledged the problem from at least as far back as 2017, and have continually advised the issue is being urgently addressed but with no solution to date.
Some users have reported that Garmin has privately acknowledged they are unable to resolve with firmware or device replacements and have offered refunds in line with local consumer law.
