Introducing Knob Blocker Radio Guard - Anytone
Our First Guard Designed for Anytone Radios
Skookum Works is excited to announce the launch of our newest Knob Blocker Radio Guard, custom designed for the Anytone D878UV.
This release marks our first-ever product made for Anytone radios, expanding our line of radio guards beyond Motorola, Kenwood, ICOM, and Harris models.
Why You Need the Knob Blocker for the D878UV
Accidental adjustments to your radio settings can be a hassle. That’s where the Knob Blocker comes in.
✅ Prevent Accidental Adjustments
Keeps your volume and channel knobs locked in, so you stay on the right frequency with the right volume—no surprises.
✅ Battery Protection
Avoid accidentally turning your radio on in your pack or gear bag. No more dead batteries when you need them most.
✅ Enhanced Durability
Protects the knobs by evenly distributing pressure between the channel knob, volume knob, and antenna—especially useful when your radio takes a hit.
✅ User-Friendly Design
Easy to use, even with gloves on. We’ve tested and refined the design to make sure it gives superior protection without compromising usability.
✅ Simple Attachment
No tools required. The guard installs in seconds via a snug friction fit on your antenna.
Special Thanks to Huron and Area Search and Rescue
We’d like to extend a huge thank-you to Huron and Area Search and Rescue (HASAR) for loaning us their Anytone D878UV, allowing us to build a model specifically for their team. Their collaboration helped bring this product to life and ensure it meets the needs of real-world rescue operations.
"I can tell you from first-hand experience that it is so easy to bump the volume or channel dial while conducting operations, and the addition of the radio guards would be a huge addition in terms of our health and safety equipment—ensuring that we are always in direct communication with our members."
— Archie MacGowan, Assistant Commander – Rescue, Huron and Area Search and Rescue
We’re honoured to support teams like HASAR who work tirelessly to keep their communities safe.
