Radio cre 89001/2/2023 I was able to program the 29.mhz repeater frequencies. as long as I stayed away from those things the upload to the radio went OK. it also hiccuped when I tried to program 27.47750. The radio hiccuped and reverted to 10m (band1) if I tried to program any 28mhz frequencies over 28.305mhz. Radio version was 3.1 and soft ware was also 3.1. Not sure exactly what they are but here are some guides. There are some things that cause this software and radio combination to hiccup and revert to 10m. Once you start making changes save the changes repeatedly under different names. Both ways work but I have had more success with using the radio’s data as a base. I prefer to down load the data from the radio and work with that rather than start from scratch. Having done that adjust the mic gain in the software (max it out to 63) and see if it can write to the radio. If you find things have gone wrong and it ain’t working you can always reinstall that one. Download the current data set and save it. If you can use those this is also a breeze but there are some quirks I have found.Ī couple of things to watch with the software….Īlways take a copy of the settings before you make any changes. This is very similar software to that used by the Anytone radios and probably the new Sryker SSB. Windows 7 found it OK but you will still need to tell the software which port the cable is on before it can communicate with the radio. The cable is specific to the Cre as it has a prolific USB to serial port adapter built in. To do this you need the cable and the software. You should increase it with the software to somewhere between 55 and the max of 63. Receive is OK and audio after we turned the mic gain up in software was clear and had a good strong average. Standard out of the box the radio puts out about 18wPEP from its twin mosfet final PA. You will find 6 bands of 40ch starting at 25.615 mhz through 28.305 mhz. When you turn it on again it will be in freeband CB mode. If you play with the programming aspects of this radio chances are you will need to know this! Once you have pressed the buttons and turned on the set release the buttons and rotate the ch selector and band 2 should show on the screen. Write it down and stick it on top of the set. Commit ‘hold “Func + Emg” and turn on radio’ to memory. The first thing you need to know is how to get this radio from the 28-29.7mhz (10m) restriction it comes with to 27mhz freeband. CB Magazine review shows you everything this radio does way better than I could ever do. this is more of a user-bility report other than an outline of what it can do. It is a lot of radio in a compact package. Plenty of reports and trials on this radio on the net so no need for me to repeat them all. The Cre 8900 has arrived and we have it on the bench.
