The manufacturer has pre-programmed your AE 5090 for some commonly-used channels:

Channel 1

recommended call channel on FM

Channel 4

recommended as call channel for AM

Channel 9

international calling and emergency channel

In Germany particularly this Channel 9 (in AM) is also used by all truck drivers. This means: a large number of stations are listening in. If the worst comes to the worst (e.g. in case of accident etc.) there is a good chance that someone will be listening.

To call other stations, who you know are listening in on channel 9, you can also use this channel. Call up the desired station on channel 9. As soon as contact has been made, agree on a free channel for your conversation and then channel 9 will be free again for other calls.

An emergency channel can of course only work if as many stations as possible are listening in. Therefore listen in to this channel as often as possible.

Channel 19: Trucker channel in France, Spain and Italy (in AM).

Channel 40

Programming one of the 5 direct channel buttons

You can re-programme each of the 5 numbers of the memory positions to any desired channel (e.g. private channels or club channels):

Choose when in normal modus the desired channel and the modulation mode AM or FM (where allowed).

Press the M button briefly (ME for Memory Enable appears on the display)

Within the next 5 seconds press the desired direct channel button (1 to 5)

The desired channel is now stored on the direct channel button selected. You will see both channel number (large) and direct button number (small) in the display.

The station will remain stored as long as the power supply is not interrupted or until You make a reset procedure for country switching.

Please note that the German channels 41-80 can only be stored and recalled from Memory in the 80/40 mode!
