Can you help me to get rid of the engine noise please? My rig (the same in this vid) has its own separate car battery in the boot. And the engine noise still comes out.!! Can something be done in the rig,? Thank you.

I'm getting back into CB. Can you please tell me Steve, what the three switches do? Also do I require a tuner, if so does it go between rig/amp or amp/ant?. Also do I swr to tuner on or rig with antenna.

Добър ден, кое радио предпочиташ president Lincoln 2+ или crt ss9900? Искам твоето мнение за cb band. Благодаря

Hi I have just bought this radio can you still use it on 27 megs or do you have to open it up and program it as I don't have a clue how to program from the pc I know you have to open the radio up and plug in the program cable its a nice radio I bought of a guy who was selling some radios on ebay for his late farther inlaw payed £90 for it cheers for any help

CRT SS6900 V7 NRC blue display AM-FM-SSB. Has a delay time on FM. From transmit to received . Can anything be done about it?

Clear as mud. Why didn't you just use the other meter with the switches on it?

I made a mistake. Bird meter is the way to go.

Bird Mater is your answer

Do you do a walk through for swr? I’ve not been on the rig for 37 years.

It gets a hot as a coal fire

Hi there buddy when will you be back on

What freq were you using during your testing ? What was the swr level?

Can this open to 10m without changing power level

Newbie question can I use powder coated steel as a ground plane for antenna

Testing the power you must set the meter to a high level first or you can damage the meter movement. So you made a BUBU.

I notice you had the mic gain on max do you find you have too ?

theres a hack to reduce a winding on the input transformer to get full power with 5w input

Just ordered one from knights uk, all set up, can't wait

So this is different to my 9900 wiring mine is 5, black common, 1, white 2, blue audio & 3, red tx & up/dn be careful guys as there seems to be differences

You should only hit this amp with no more than 2 watts dead key. I actually dead key mine at 1 watt and it gives me 10, and I swing up to about 100. This amp works the best that way. AM with swing is king here in the US. Hitting it with more than 2 watts you are going to kill that amp fast.

I have 3pc of this and thay give 3w=40w, 4w=60w, 5w=80w, 6w=90w, 7w=100w AM/FW swr 1,2 ch.55(dont have dummy). SSB power input 10-15w swing up to 200w pep. This amplifier is NOT recomanded at AM/FM unleast you drive only 3-4w input, then OK and will last many many year :) Remember that the fuse are 12amp so that meen draw more amps not good. Soldier in 15amp car-fuse its a good ide, and a fan on the top of it. All test at 13.8v

This video is on of the best information how to swr in.thank you very much 😀

Dose the old 1980s gold B300p go to 5 and 10w like this one dose ..good video too its in English

I purchased one and it is one of the best ten meter radios that I have ever owned. Thanks for the video..

Happy Christmas and New Year buddy. Been a long time since you made a video. Are you coming back.. XYL missing your adventures

You can put 20 watts into them on sideband

Did you try the FT-450 with the internal tuner out of line? It can affect the power readings and if the input tune on the amp is okay, then it's not needed.

To be sure to get out in an ER or Contact a breaker. W out skip ,, up to 100 watter w close to swr reading in short hops is all that works without burnen up your radio and pissen it up

My blue display 3900 has a heat sink. Pull the switch to open up all bands

I followed the same set up as Rooster CB channel President Richard turned down 2.2 DK with the Dick and this same amp I'm getting the same 180 PEP as shown on Rooster CB channel this amp draws heat fast I want it to last so I will be adding a fan.

Alright steve,hope you are well.are you going to do any more videos.

Very nice and thank you

Is it possible to use both the Preamp and the Poweramp at the same time or do i have to flick the switch for each one depending on if i am listening or sending ? Thanks..

Too many experts......

Whats a good wattage to run into it

Good chats 👍 from 29ir056

Thanks Steve , that was a huge help , brilliant videos as always .

Hi Steve , I hope that your doing well & that all is good .

Can you still buy these antennas?

Hi mate does the ss6900 have the talk back function

Nice vid - easy mod - thanks for the guidance

Not a radio I would recommend to anyone getting into the hobby or returning after some years tbh

Hi Steve, I have one of these but can’t get below 28. How do I get cb on 27. Thanks. Eamonn.

Hi Steve Al from Dunstable, but moved to Leighton buzzard. Not heard you on for a while and just looking around and you came to my head, so if you are still about I’ll give you a shout out soon. Look after yourself and love to the family.🇬🇧🍻👍

Why need both jumpers to be moved? I saw other tutorials that moves only the top jumper, I tried that and it works.

Theres a differens between keyand swing watts,u should know witch they are taking about

ok

What is the thickness of the antenna the binatone. ?

Thanks Steve, wish I'd have found you a few years ago !!!!!
