Welcome! The 980 is a nice rig, thought about getting one myself.
Welcome to THE BEST site for CB or Ham Radio.
You might have a long wait on CH 16. If you can swing it get a 40 channel CB with SSB.
Welcome to the forum ! 
Tall if he has a 980 he can get to 40 ? Cobra , we try 16 once in a while to revive it , so far no luck . Try 38 & Up LSB . 73 , Leo

I must have misread his post. I thought if he was limited to 16 he might have had an old 23 ch radio.Welcome to the forum !
Welcome.
Using it mobile or fixed?
The Uniden 980 is my favorite as to “The Basic Radio” as AM without SSB just isn’t worth the money.
WWDX a great site for research. It’s no longer a surprise I do a Net search to wind up back here.
(Which reminds me: I have a new 980 delivered several days ago I need to go over and pick up. This site can also whet the “MORE” appetite, so beware!).
I’ve managed to acquire Uniden 880, 885, and now 980 the past few years. The first two are likely to go to new homes.
