Your ALAN 78 PLUS MULTI represents the state-of-the art in high-tech engineering.
Designed for the Citizen Band Mobile operation, this compact package is big in
performance. It is a quality piece of electronic equipment, skillfully constructed with
the finest components. The circuitry is all a solid-state, mounted on rugged printed
circuit boards. It is designed for many years of reliable, trouble-free performance.
Your mobile CB has a built Phase-Locked Loop synthesizer circuit.
The PLL circuit achieves a new technique for generating all the required frequen-
cies with fewer crystals. The result is much tighter frequency control and superior
reliability.
Important Note
Following national regulations have been modified:
Residents of Belgium, Great Britain, Spain and Switzerland need a CB licence in
their countries, while visitors may use their CB radios in FM free of licence, for AM
they should be able to present their home-country’s licence document. In Italy, even
visitors need a valid Italian authorization.
Austria does not accept any multi-standard or programmable CB radio. Please
respect this requirement and do not use Your radio during driving through Austria.
In Germany transmitting as a base station on channels 41-80 is restricted in some
areas along the country borders. No restrictions apply for mobile use. More details
can be obtained from the local RegTP authority office.
Changes in European or national regulations will be published on the service website
of ALAN-Albrecht under www.alan-albrecht.info
