Vox Function / Emg Channel Selection - Albrecht AE 6491 NRC Manual

6.3. VOX function / EMG Channel selection

Short press VOX/EMG button to activate or deactivate the
VOX function. The VOX function allows to communicate hands
free. When the VOX function is activated, the radio recognizes
speech and automatically starts transmitting.
Long press VOX/EMG (Emergency) button for instant access
to the international Calling & Emergency channel 9, which
is monitored by all truckers and many CB users and in some
regions even by road safety organizations. If you need any help
or assistance, it is a good idea to call on this channel 9. Truckers
can be reached in most cases in AM mode.
The emergency channel is also used on the German highways
as warning system in case of accidents, road maintenance or
serious traffic jams with collision danger. If you pass a special
beacon on your lane and a dangerous situation may be in front of
you, you will be warned by alarm tones and voice announcement.
With the VOX/EMG key you can toggle between CH 9 and your
previously used channel.
The other, often used calling channel is Channel 19. If you want
to use CH 19, please use FC and the second function button
SHIFT.
