For sale is a lightly used CRE 8900 all-mode export radio. This is a DIN-sized version of the AnyTone AT-5555 series (also known as the SS6900/Superstar 6900, Alpha 10 Max MA-1000, Maas DX5000, K-Po DX5000, Voyage BR-9000 and a dozen other models). See below for the specifications:
http://cbradio.nl/cre/cre_8900.htmThe radio is in excellent condition and comes with original box, mounting brackets/hardware and microphone (with UP/DOWN and automatic squelch on/off on the mic). All-mode AM FM LSB USB CW and PA modes. Power output is adjustable for all modes.
25 watts SSB PEP
10-12 watts AM carrier
10-12 watts FM power
10-12 watts CW power
Features:
-Selectable clarifier steps 10 Hz, 100 Hz, 1 kHz or 10 kHz (change steps by simply pushing the clarifier knob in, very useful for SSB operation)

-Fully adjustable roger beep duration and tone

-Automatic SWR indication (shows SWR on transmit) option
-Power supply voltage indication (shows DC voltage on transmit) option
Right now the radio is programmed with the standard 6 band export channel plan with some extras, including the UK FM 27/81 channels as channels 21-60 on band F) the A channels for each band, several SSB freeband channels such as 27.440 MHz, 27.470 MHz, 27.500 MHz, etc. and several 10m FM frequencies
Computer programmable (computer programming is NOT required). I have received numerous excellent signal reports on AM, FM and SSB mode. Several ops commented that it sounded like I was talking on a "real" HF SSB ham rig. The very fine tuning (10 Hz and 100 Hz steps) come in extremely handy when working SSB
This radio looks great in modern vehicles and can be dash-mounted with a DIN adapter. Will be shipped with its original box/packaging and manual/documentation. This radio is one of the first CRE 8900s to hit the market - I actually purchased it from a UK based radio distributor before the radio was even available in the USA.
It's been sitting in my radio closet for a while now...unused. I recently saw a new opened box version of this radio on sale on eBay for $300. I'm asking $250 including shipping within the lower 48. Send me a PM.
Thanks!
