Mike JamesI had previously tried that but did not get any radio stations, static noise or anything at all. There has to be some trick to it. I bought a manual for the car but it tells you to reference the separate radio operation booklet that came with the car. Of course I do not have that one.

Almost, John...😃 He needs the manual for the radio with the UN5 CB option. 👍

firedudeMy '76 did not have a radio when I acquired it. It did have the antenna, and the antenna wiring included a selector box with a switch. The switch options were CB or radio. Looks like the switch would have lived behind the driver seat maybe. Mine was all coiled up under the rear carpet. Sorry I don't have pics, threw it away.

Is it as simple as just turning the volume knob out of the off position?

'76 did not have a CB option. What you have/had was most likely an aftermarket switching set-up to allow the factory radio antennae to also work for a CB antennae. I put one like that in my '74 so I could have a CB when I took it on our first long road tour years ago. I think it is still tucked up under the center console, now that I think about it! 😅

I think I have the Factory Service manual for an '81. I'll look and see if it has any info on the operation of the radio....
Otherwise, you might try to find the additional manual for the UN5 option.

NCRS can tell you that info. Join and pay the $40 bucks and they will tell you what dealership it was originally sold from.
