About this deal

Would i buy another CRT radio ? Hell yes i would, but and this is the caveat, i would buy it from the same dealer that replaced mine. No matter if it were more expensive or not infact they were not the cheapest on the 7900 at the time. The radio has only the basic controls you need: volume, squelch and channel change. There is also a preset "auto-squelch".

Here is a link of my first CRT radio with what i can only describe as someone keying up next to a tractor engine right on 27.555, the video sound doesnt do the problem justice to be fair it was worse when trying to listen with it. Sounds like the SS9900 / AT6666 is the radio to get then. Do I need the programming cable? I'm not really into computers/programming so unless its something I need to learn should I give it a miss? What's gained from cable? Thanks for your help VFO frequency mode continuous from 28.000 to 29.700 MHz (Standard) or 24.880 to 30.000 MHz (expanded) Like all the latest radios, this is a multi-standard radio so that it can be used in both the UK and most European countries. In the UK it covers all 80 legal FM channels, when use in other European countries it is also capable of operating on AM. If your just rag chewing local or dx ing when its really going either will do a fine job and the better receive of the lincoln you probaby wont notice.I see your point now the only one missing off mine off that list is band A Super Super low band so I will program that over one of the 11/12m bands , cheers Power / Signal Strength / SWR indication + Numéric indication for SWR value + Power supply DC displaying The microphone has a 4 pin plug on it and does not have channel change buttons on it (which some customers like but others say they catch them by mistake). Thanks for your advice. Think I am going to get one....quite like the idea of a new radio instead of my old used radios which keep failing

The constant VFO at first i didnt think i would get on with but i have grown to actually prefer it. I can move from T5 to the mids with ease and ukfm is on memory but without channel indicator. 9900 you can program how you like, you just have to press the band button to change.Pop over to our mate Del's he's got the perfect chart for you there. You'll notice there are some anomalies in the frequencies for historic reasons. Whilst I'm no fan of the freebander crowd, at least I can concede to the fact they actually buy some decent gear at times - vs the endless cycle of fake-retro con stuff fed to the CB market. Hell, one example alone will give you two 'CB' segments and PMR446 TxRx capability in one box plus a lot in between you'd more likely listen to out of curiosity, like coastguard and maritime VHF and in one instance, full VHF aviation coverage. How does the power adjust? Is it seperate adjustment for each modes? So run at max on SSB and low on FM/AM I guess is the best thing to do.

The channel display is a blue LED, rather than the more common LCD display. This has the advantage that it can be viewed from any angle, whereas LCD displays become faint when viewed at some angles (particularly from below). I will probaly us it mainly FM when in convoy with others so low power but will hopefully try some DX on SSB.A new version of the CRT 2000 listed above. There are 2 differences with this model compared to the one above: This software will work on many of the radios that are sold under different names, such as the kPo DX-5000 (not the DX-5000+) andMaas DX-5000. Controls are kept to a minimum on the radio, but through the various menu options you can make many adjustments to the radio to optimise it's performance. New on Version 4: On version 4 you have also band K (24.885 - 25.365 MHz) and band L (25.375 - 25.605 MHz) To be honest the only ones you are likely to find C.B. activity are The Mid band 26965 - 27405. The Uk40 2760125 - 2799125 and the High band 27415 - 27855. The SSB calling channel is 27555. Call then QSY up or down a bit. Just for info the "High band" is outside of the legal U.K. C.B. allocation but very commonly used anyway.
