Your MIDLAND 278 DS represents the state-of-the art in high-tech engineering.
Designed for the Citizen Band Mobile operation, this compact package is big in
performance. It is a quality piece of electronic equipment, skillfully constructed with
the finest components. The circuitry is all a solid-state, mounted on rugged printed
circuit boards. It is designed for many years of reliable, trouble-free performance.
Your mobile CB has a built Phase-Locked Loop synthesizer circuit.
The PLL circuit achieves a new technique for generating all the required frequen-
cies with fewer crystals. The result is much tighter frequency control and superior
reliability.
MIDLAND 278 DS is equipped with the “NOISE BLANKER” (noise reducer
device) that reduces considerably the audio noises up to 95%, allowing a clear
communication even when the signal is disturbed.
The brand new feature of MIDLAND 278 DS is the Digital Automatic Squelch,
very useful because there’s no need to turn manually the squelch knob every time.
The automatic squelch allows a very clear reception of all the incoming signals
and eliminates the unwanted background noise.
