- Thread starter cbradiomagazine.com

he's on Ebay if you can't find him mine still has the box with the original mic in it let me know I will do the same deal I have a few of them
I messaged him, he sold out and said that he didn't know if and when he'd get more.
He only had version 5's anyways. I'd hold out for the version 6.

CRE 8900/Anytone 5500 VERSUs Yeticom Optima MkIII
OK, what's you're thoughts?
Money is not an object. Quality and size are.
Sadly, my 2510 which I bought the month after they can out and served my well was sent to Doc to be Doctored. The US Postal Service shoved a stell something or other through the package and broke the faceplate. There are no parts. It's toast! Hence my dilemma as to what to buy.
Thanks

Let me say I have bought anything under the sun that came out the last 5 years or so for SSB operation and nothing I mean NOTHING can hold a candle to the Yeticom Optima, yea it might be more money but is by far a GREAT working radio recieve and transmit, there is nothing better on the market today at all. NOTHING.

as for your smashed radio,did you buy insurance when you mailed it via usps? my choice for size,price,and features would be the cre-8900 at the mobile radio store. this radio can be mounted in a simgle Din radio hole. Don't buy the Optima Mk2,just ask M42duster. check out the optima Mk3 instead. and don't buy from anyone unless you know their reputation first. be sure to add the mobile radio store to your contacts if you email them. the other site you can buy a cre-8900 is bells cb. peace!

2510 Insurance and Optima etc.
Yes, it was insured. I tend to think that the Optima MkIII will be my purchase.

Optima MKIII Mobile Mounting
Mu 2510 was floor mounted on the hump of my Caddy 2004 Deville. I couldn't see the lite panel or read the faceplate.
I've checked out several makers and the one that looks likeliest is the MM1001 from IIX equipment Ltd. at IIX EQUIPMENT LTD., page Five. It's 9" high with a swivel mounting bracket.
Any better ideas?
Thanks

There is one other possibility that I can see is a coffee cup holder mount. Does anyone know where I might get this?
