Starting on the left hand side of the radio you’ll find the volume/squelch knobs. While the case of the radio is similiar to the Uniden and there are some design similarities, the board is different and the President Grant II really does act like a completely different radio. Instead of the shiny chrome bezel the President Grant II opted for a flat black look to match the cases. You’ll notice the size immediately, it’s a small compact radio and uses the same case as the Uniden 980 (Dimensions – 7 1/4 W x 2 1/4 H x 7 1/2 D). The President Grant II box is small (same size box as the Uniden 980) and inside you’ll find the normal collection of gear – Radio, Microphone, Power Cord, Mounting Bracket/Hardware, and Manual. Are the radios worth shipping over? You’ll have to make that decision on your own.
