CRE 8900 is back in stock at Bells CB. CRE 8900 10 Meter Radio

I had been off the air for a while too and now that I am back I thought all the loonies had been released and given radio's on their way out the door. It is good to hear the popularity of the hobby is up and that the DX conditions are peaking but I am finding my old romping grounds 35-40 USB...

His post was related to the radio discussion your post is not!

Funniest thing about Mr bye-bye-bye is couple days ago I heard him on 38lsb in the morning saying he was from Puerto Rico then about 1/2 hour later he was from Jamaca West Indies and another hour or so he was from Hawaii. Pretty sure he is near me in SE Michigan.

But he gets down! And sounds good doing it.

No I don't want them just as collector items, I have one for the car and another one for my base station and like you plan on using them for many years to come. But I've been inside one of the stock mics trying to reverse engineer it and have thought about taking its guts and putting it into...

I've been searching Ebay and cant find the listing for it. How much? :w00t:

The multiple resets worked for the RD but I must have the resistor in the wrong place on the 636L. Thanks for the advice! How often is the delay coming back forcing a reset? Reset after changing mics maybe?

Delay was gone but now its back. For some reason my delay is back with my Road Devil. I replaced the resistor and it is still has the delay. I tried adding the resistor to my new 636l and it is still delaying too. Tried both mics on both of my CRE 8900's both with a 1k ohm 1/4 watt resistor...
