Albrecht AE 2980 - Memory Programming and Scanning; Factory Defaults and Programming; Channel Scanning Function

9
Factory default setting:
- Channel 1
-
Channel 9 (international emergency and calling channel)
Especially in Germany most truck drivers use this channel in AM for their communications.
This means, that channel 9 is the only channel on CB, where many people are permanently
listening. This can be very important in case of emergency.
Even if you intend to call a certain station, you can try to call on CH 9 first. If the called station
answers, you can discuss with the other party to which working channel you will go. Then
change the channel – and channel 9 is again free for other calls.
- Kanal 19
Trucker-Channel in France, Spain and Italy
- Kanal 4
- Kanal 40 (FM Calling channel in Switzerland)
Programming your own MEMO Channels
Each of the 5 memory locations can be re-programmed to other channels.
- Step 1 Select the desired channel and the modulation in normal mode
- Step 2 Press MEMO about 2 seconds until one of the memory location numbers
will appear (1-5)
- Step 3 Select the memory location number by UP/DWN (1 to 5)
- Step 4
Press
MEMO
shortly to store the new channel
- Step 5 Press one of the buttons UP/DWN to go back into normal operation
Your new channel is saved in memory as long as the power supply will not be interrupted for
longer periods. Please note that memory settings will be lost when you change the country
programming.
Note:
Even if the battery becomes discharged, there is still enough energy for the memory back-up.
Replacing batteries will provide some minutes back-up power, so that the settings are not lost
during normal battery replacement procedures.
The current consumption for the memory backup is very small and does not have any influence
on the normal discharging of batteries over longer time periods.
Channel SCAN
The AE 2980 has an automatic Scanning function, where all 40 (80) channels or your MEMO
channels can be subsequently checked for activity.
First select between normal operation (channels) or MEMO mode.
Adjust the squelch SQ to the desired opening point (threshold)
