CONNECTING POWER
The charging cradle uses a single AC adapter.
1. Connect the AC adapter to the DC 9V jack on the rear of the
charging cradle.
2. Plug the other end of the AC adaptor into a 120 VAC wall
outlet.
NOTE
• The drop-in charger is not waterproof. Ensure
the radio is dry before connecting to the charger.
• Don’t use the charger when the ambient
temperature is below 32ºF (0ºC) or above 113ºF
(45ºC).
INSTALL THE BATTERY PACK
Your radio uses the supplied NiMH battery pack. To install the
NiMH battery:
1. Make sure the radio is off.
2. Use a screwdriver to turn the battery compartment screw
counterclockwise and then lift up and remove the battery cover.
3. Put the NiMH battery pack in the battery compartment, applying
the battery contacts to the lower charge contacts. Be sure
to follow the instructions written on the battery pack’s label.
Installing the battery pack incorrectly will prevent the unit from
operating.
E-10 Uniden Atlantis 150 Owner’s Manual
CAUTION
Use only the supplied NiMH battery pack. Do not
charge alkaline or non rechargeable batteries.
5. Before placing the battery cover back on the radio, check the
rubber seal around the battery compartment and the ribbon of
the battery pack. Make sure that the seal is in good condition
and that there is no foreign matter under the seal.
If the rubber seal appears worn, nicked, or dried out, replace
it. Visit the website on the cover of this manual to order a
replacement seal.
6. Replace the battery compartment door. Tighten the screws
securely.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Your radio includes a charging cradle and a rechargeable battery
pack. Follow these instructions to recharge the radio in the
charging cradle.
NOTE
For the initial battery charge, make sure the radio is off for
optimum charging.
1. Connect the charging cradle to power. Refer to page 9.
2. Set the charging cradle on the desk or tabletop, and place the
radio in the charging cradle with the keypad facing forward.
3. Make sure that the LED illuminates. Charge the radio for 13
hours then remove it from the charging cradle.
E-11
Uniden Atlantis 150 Owner’s Manual
WARNING
• The charging cradle is not waterproof. If the
charging cradle falls into water, unplug it before
attempting to remove it from the water. Allow the
cradle to dry completely before reconnecting the
power.
• If your radio is soiled or wet, wipe off dirt or
shake water from your radio before placing it in
the charging cradle.

Uniden Atlantis 150 Owner’s Manual
Set Squelch
Use squelch to eliminate any annoying background noise when
there are no signals present.
NOTE
Make sure to first select a channel not in use before setting the
squelch.
Think of the squelch control as a gate. If you
increase the squelch level to maximum, it raises
the “Squelch Gate” so only the strongest signals
get through.
If you decrease the squelch level to minimum, it
lowers the “Squelch Gate”’ to the extent that weak
signals can get through.
If unwanted weak and noisy signals are getting
through, increase the squelch level (raise the
“Squelch Gate”) to a medium level. Now only
medium and strong signals get through.
S1 - minimum squelch
S2 - medium squelch
S3 - maximum/tight squelch
E-14 Uniden Atlantis 150 Owner’s Manual
1. Press SQL/UIC. SQL displays and the current squelch level
flashes.
2. Press
SQL/UIC
while the squelch level displays
to change the squelch level to the next step (0 -
3, then repeating again from 0).
3. Press and hold
SQL/UIC
to exit the squelch
setting. A 2 second timeout also exits squelch
setting.
TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING

HOW IT WORKS
Your radio has three main operation modes: normal, scan, and
weather.
Mode What it does
Use it when you
want to...

Normal
Monitors a single marine
channel and lets you
talk on that channel.

Weather
Monitors the selected
NOAA weather channel.
Hear the current or
forecasted weather.
Press WX/

In addition to the three operation modes, your radio provides
two different watch modes which you can activate during any
operation mode. In the watch modes, the radio briey checks
for activity on a specic channel, then returns to its previous
operation.
Watch mode What it does To turn it on/off
Weather Alert
Watch
Checks the last-used
weather channel for hazard
alerts every 7 seconds.
Press and hold WX
ALERT for 2 seconds.
Triple Watch
Checks channels 16 and 9
for activity every 2 seconds.
Press and hold 16/9-Tri
for 2 seconds.
# Note: Private boats must monitor channel 16 whenever they
are underway. Water-going vessels should have Triple Watch
on at all times.
NORMAL MODE OPERATION
x To transmit, remove the radio from the charger, then press
and hold the Push to Talk key. Release the key when you are
finished talking.
E-17
Uniden Atlantis 150 Owner’s Manual
x For the best sound quality, hold the microphone about two
inches from your mouth while you’re talking.
x Press the
CH
key to move up one channel at a time. Press
and hold the key to scroll quickly up the channels.
x Press the
CH
key to move down one channel at a time.
Press and hold the key to scroll quickly down the channels.
x To change the transmit power, press the HI-LO/LOCK key. The
transmit power switches to the next transmit power each time
you press this key.
Normal mode with Weather Alert Watch
If you activate Weather Alert Watch while operating in normal
mode, the radio checks
the most recently used
weather channel every
seven seconds. If it detects
a weather or other hazard
alert, it will switch to that
weather channel. (If you are
actively transmitting, the
radio waits until you nish
your transmission before
checking the weather
channel.)
Normal mode with Triple Watch
If you activate Triple Watch while operating in normal mode,
the radio checks channels 9 and 16 every two seconds. The
radio will not check channels 9 or 16 while you are actively
transmitting; it waits until your transmission is nished and then
checks the channels.

Every few seconds, the
radio checks the last-used
weather channel.

SCAN MODE OPERATION
You can save channels into memory and then use scan mode
to monitor those channels from lowest to highest. If the radio
detects a signal on a channel, it stays on that channel as long
as the signal is received; when the signal stops, the radio
continues scanning.
Using the radio in scan mode
x To activate scan mode, press SCAN/MEM.
x You must have at least two channels in memory to start a
scan.

WEATHER MODE
The NOAA weather channels now cooperate with the FCC to
alert you of other hazards besides weather (child abduction
alerts, nuclear, biological, etc.). In weather mode, the radio
monitors one of the nine NOAA weather channels. If any type of
alert is received, the radio sounds an alert tone and the display
blinks.
Using the radio in weather mode
x You cannot transmit while in weather mode.
x To enter weather mode, press the WX/ALERT key.
x To turn off the radio’s alert tone, press any key.
x To cancel weather mode and return to the previous marine
channel, press the WX/ALERT key again.
Weather mode with Weather Alert Watch
Because weather mode already monitors the weather channels,
you don’t need Weather Alert Watch to check the weather
channel every seven seconds. If you activate Weather Alert
Watch while operating in weather mode, it operates as a type of
“sleep" mode; the radio stays on the weather channel and mutes
the speaker. If an alert is detected, the radio sounds an alert
tone and turns the speaker back on. This mode is very useful
when you are anchoring for the night but want to keep informed
of hazards.
Weather mode with Triple Watch
If you activate Triple
Watch while operating in
weather mode, the radio
checks channels 9 and
16 every two seconds.
