The only thing it doesn't have is a Galaxy label on it.
I may still buy a replacement stock mic for it though.
#CRE 8900 POWER MODS MOD#
Triple 7's mic mod includes trimming down the RD's volume slide control and make it a internally adjustable. I'm going to hook up a modulation meter to it to see what kind of numbers I get,and to set up the RD to the radio. I would have wanted a 5 Watt option for power-saving and repeater use. It's a lot quieter radio on receive than the DX-959 and has fairly good modulstion. CRE 8900 Power OutXtals for 11 and 45 0 204 Installation 2 197 powermike connection 2 204 Grant 2 tech question. There are only two power settings, high and low. It's a nice radio for the price and rock steady on frequency. Tap in to 13.8 volts that's on one of the radio's mic pins and use it to power the RD instead of it's battery and replace the red case(Triple 7's mod)with a chrome one I bought from DNJ. A 1K resistor will go between the audio and the ground in the RD mic. When I get the Road Devil mic I'll wire it up to the 6 pin mic plug.
I want to be cautious and not blow out a trace like CBRadioMagazine did with his 8900. I just got the mic adapters in today to run my 2018 mic on along with a 6 pin RCI jack that's not wired for a 8900.
