Screen isn't as bright and getting some what harder to see. Can you replace just the screen(where can i buy a screen) or is this something that needs to be sent into Uniden?
Its not blurry or foggy, just not as bright as its use to be.

Uniden knew that this was an issue and for several years they repaired them for free but I believe that they started charging for the repairs last year. You can search the forums as it is a well documented and discussed issue.

Haven't heard that one in a long time. What is your serial number on the back of your radio? Not your ESN number from the radio itself under scanner information. What is your serial number from the back of the radio. Unfortunately for you, the very very long time free repair from Uniden has expired. I'd be curious to know how long you have owned the radio and who you bought it from. This is a 7 year old radio, This problem should have shown up years and years ago.

There was a free repair campaign for that issue for several years. You'll need to pay the standard $80+shipping flat rate to get it fixed now.

Yes of course as I said... I'm just curious when you got your radio, who you bought it from and when this incident occurred. If you wouldn't mind give me your serial number from the back of your radio. Yes, Uniden acknowledged this problem after over a year of it occurring, I'm just curious if you received this radio recently as sold as new.
