CRT SS 9900 V4

Good question.
Many use them but i found my fingers too big for the many buttons.
Somebody that uses one will be along with a better answer.

Hi Vandora,Just upgraded from the CRT 6900n to the CRT 9900 V4 a month ago and to say what a difference would be an understatement.Where to start - Much better Mic and fantastic audio reports,smoother Clarification dial that doesn’t click and cut out the signal while being adjusted.Being able to store 5 memory channels (Simple I know but handy),Output power Am 15W/FM 45W and SSB 60W PEP (Mine swings 80W PEP SSB).
The 9900 doesn’t get as hot as my 6900n and I mean you could cook an egg on the radio if used at full blast on FM.I’m told the newer version of the 6900n v7 has vents on the casing for better heat dissipation.Better numbered digital SWR Meter not little squares like the 6900n.
If there was a minus point for the 9900 it would be the lack of adjustment on the Roger bleep,Just 5 to choose from.Go for number 5 as the other are either too long or sound like something from Toys are Us.And I’m told the echo is too overwhelming but I’ve never used it.
Overall a great radio for the money on either 10,11 and 12 meters and I wish I bought one from the start.
Hope that is of some help.
Cheers Tom.
