CRT 9900 CB SS 9900 AM/FM/USB/LSB Radio Station, Black

Product Information

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 Now do i think that CRT is a carp company ? Well given that my one radio is sounding like this its easy to spout on about how they make carp and dont buy one. Its easy to say crt are turning out rubbish, its easy to say crt are damaging their profits and reputation. I wont however, because the dealer and hats of to them identified the issue on their radios' and im very greatful that they replaced it with a CRT 9900. This CRT 9900 does not suffer from the same issue and is in fact a great little radio. 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.

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) These are the circumstances around me here in cambridge, im sure mileage may vary in differing area's. On a weekly basis, there is around 12 of us that use ukfm for a chinwag, 5 of those 12 are less than 30, of the remaining the eldest is retired, us others are between 40 and 48. VFO frequency mode continuous from 28.000 to 29.700 MHz (Standard) or 24.880 to 30.000 MHz (expanded) 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 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.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. 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. 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

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). antenna1 wrote: Thanks for the link but that list does not line up with mine e.g on mine band A is UK cb and what is on band A on that list is not on my radio then band G TO L are missing on that list to. It helps a little bit but not the list dealers are preprograming the ss9900 to. cheers

SS9900 specifications

The receive on the lincoln is better than than the 9900, not the sound the 9900 does sound better, but if your trying to make sense of stuff coming in on the noise floor the lincoln will do a better job. I have both and use both, the lincoln i use when trying to get long distance groundwave or static mobile the features of the lincoln are more useful to me. fully illuminated and voltage display. Yes the 9900 has voltage display but its not very accurate and it only shows voltage at full draw ie transmitting. Have to say the lincoln voltage display isnt very accurate either but its nearer than the 9900 and shows voltage at low draw, this just makes it easier to monitor battery levels while out.

Identical in size to the no-longer-available Midland 38 and 98, we also have an optional "DIN" adapter for fitting the radio into a standard ISO-DIN radio slot. Power / Signal Strength / SWR indication + Numéric indication for SWR value + Power supply DC displaying I am actually in the situation that I try to choose between 9900 and 6900N (ver. 6) . If I understand correct I would not actually want to run any of the radio`s on max,the only difference is looks (maybe an outside usb on the 9900?),and the ctcss/dcs in the 9900 and not in 6900N..(?) The weird thing is that at the moment I could get the 9900 a bit cheeper than the 6900N,but what bothers me a bit is that I like the looks of the 6900N the best.. I think. Which is best..High power mobile & desktop transceiver for the 28 MHz or expanded 25-30 MHz band. Up-to 15W AM, 45W FM and 60Watts SSB. CTCSS / DCS selective calling, scan, echo function, SWR protection, PC programmable. 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. If the cable does anything near what the dx 5000 could do with it then there is no way you would not want it.
