That's wrong and funny at the same time.

Skullcraka? Lol

So how does scan work? It's not in the manual for the D model. I thought it was patrol function but nooo...

So this is electronic circuits 101 in 2017?

You're about 2 years too late on this one buckaroo :)

N3JTN - Just curious why you would buy one of these export radios for $600 + when you can buy a better HF rig with all the frequencies and modes for the same price or not much more.

I dig those boots!

My 2 cents. If I buy something and don't use it in the course of a year I sell. Old radios that sit too long tend to need components, especially caps, replaced and that can get expensive. It's hard to part with the old vintage gear we grew up with but I rarely miss it once I have a new shiny...

They don't make VTVM's any more. I believe you can use a newer DMM for the reading.

Not the rugged dxpedition I was picturing in my head. You're stylin. Have fun.

The 8900 D manual. CONTERNTS...says it all. I'll figure out the scan function.

This is the new version of the KT-8900 and they're just starting to show up on Amazon. I see only 1 review on this model. I'll try the scan function this evening and let you know.

Yes it will. I had one of those amps and power out if you drive it correctly is a little over 100 watts and power draw less than 20 amps.

Let me know if you have any luck programming it via software. I only monitor a few local repeaters and programming via the mic keypad is simple. Good audio reports and like I said earlier it has good receive audio for such a tiny rig. It does do one odd thing that has no effect on operation...

What would that new call sign be?

I think that picture would bring tear to our eyes.

Feast your eyes on this beauty. $250, rust included! To say it probably sat in a high moisture environment for several years is probably an understatement. http://www.ebay.com/itm/cb-amplifier-bruiser-linear-/322361025388?hash=item4b0e36e36c:g:aG0AAOSw241YU1bD

True - maybe 7.185 +/- 5khz to stay off the general class band edge?
