President George FCC “The Uniden Facts”

2024 just two days in and naysayers, fools and those of lesser brain capacity are making up lies and mistruth about the President George FCC. To most this radio is a video on YouTube or words on blogs, forums and not owned, touched or transmitted on. And so before I need answer more emails then let’s look at the facts and naysayers or those who deny reality below is the truth, the whole truth.

First Off: It is not in anyway, shape, form a Uniden produced radio. It’s a President produced radio from a facility they have in China. That’s why it says “Made In PRC” not “Made In Vietnam” which is usual for Uniden. Next may seen rude or confrontational as I know the Uniden boss but I don’t think Uniden of today could make this radio. BUT I await to see any new Uniden like this.

Uniden 980 SSB Here is where some are confused. Front looks the same it’s popular and has become a classic in its appearance but under the skin the 980 has Uniden on the board and George FCC has President! They are not tricking you as it’s not Uniden produced. And most likely of all is President owned the tooling of the radio (Grant II) and can use and modify it** (My guess only they own tooling) Add to this recent Uniden radios are same as older ones with added FM. No cutting state of the art radio so far.

NRC Uniden don’t have it so far

The George FCC and George II EU are European engineered and not Uniden Japan or Vietnam as it’s not Uniden produced. I’ve said it so many times it’s EU drawn, designed, engineered, tested and all things that makes a radio a living entity. The old previous George was indeed Uniden produced and manufacture and was a classic. That’s why a successor took 35 years to come. Hard to replace and even harder to produce and get ideas for.

I’m not trying to get people to suck eggs and honestly don’t care if you believe my words or not in reality. I know the facility they use, I know absolutely beyond any shadow or millimetre of doubt this radio isn’t Uniden! And most of all most dealers in USA 🇺🇸 Canada 🇨🇦 know and it’s not a conspiracy to trick you when they say it’s not Uniden it’s because it’s not a Uniden it’s a President, made in a President facility and designed in Balaruc France by guess who? President.. Not Uniden

Future emails to me about this I’ll simply respond with this article as there isn’t anything left to say, all stones unturned. The reality IS the reality and it’s in the words above.

  1. Hello Simon.

    Best wishes of health and happiness for you and your loved ones in this year 2024 which begins.

    I just read the update you made regarding the radios manufactured by Uniden for the USA and those manufactured by President in China for Europe and I agree with you, There are too many people who say stupid things because they do not take the time to learn about the products.

    You were right to make this point, anyway I see that these devices are a real technical evolution compared to the old generations.

    We currently have either CRT, President, Anytone or Stryker devices that are superb frequency stability especially for the SSB which is difficult to develop and this new NRC filter that works in RX and TX that solves many problems.

    Let’s take advantage of equipping ourselves with these new radios and the comfort of use they provide and no matter who manufactures them from the moment they work as they should.

    Best wishes to the other stations for 2024 and good DX’s to all in this 25th solar cycle that rises in power.

    73/51 to all.

  2. I too will confirm what has been said by Simon ,as I’ve been to the France HQ,engineered ,repaired in France Europe
    And manufactured in China under President guidance and all tooling is Presidents.

    Don’t really know what the big fuss is all about? ,you got the radio wanted now does it really matter who or where it’s built ?

    I will add an additional comment on terms engineering,President company do sample test designs and goes through a rigourous tests on bench by the engineers and gets air checks!
    Some other CB companies just take things on face values ,till something shows up.
    You get backup warranty ,service spares etc
    Test gear they use is top notch at the France HQ as seen it first hand,other cb companies don’t even have techs or very limited test equipment.
    So regardless where the sets are made,they do get tested thoughly in pre and final production samples to ensure the manufacturers in China get it right.

    If you really want to know,don’t solely rely on blogs etc ,email the companies,ring them ,speak to them directly or registered dealers (its on groupe president electronic site) that’s the best way to get information from the horse’s mouth directly about products.
