i looked for ages for the mic wiring fot the 9900&the anytone but could not find it . As it had a +voltage out i did'nt go any further but now i can thanks Steve
Thanks Steve.....you just saved me about £50 or £60 (going by ebay prices). I've got both the CRE8900 and the CRT-SS9900 and I was planning to get another Road Devil mic for the CRT-SS9900 but now I know that I can use the one I've already got on the CRE8900. I didn't know they were wired the same, so many thanks :-)
Hi Jonathan I will look into that, thanks for letting me know. I have just looked at a diagram from crt, their diagram looks to be from the other way around ie from the inside of the rig. If need be I will sort a new vid explaining all, I realise our knowledge comes from a collective and not just from me and others uploading.
Can I assume that the wire coming from that mic is not mic wire with a shield wrapped around the audio wire? Does the 9900 have a function in its programming to go from Electret to Dynamic, carbon, etc....????
hi Arlene i am unsure regarding your wiring question. normally the shield does wrap around the audio wire, although its often hard to get a good visual on it. the 9900 has no electret/dynamic function, that said the stock mike is great. i have tried a kpo on it, but found no improvement.
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
Hi UK Guy if i said it in the video then yes. Gotta be honest here i got rid of the 8900 a long time ago. There is a way to check. Type into google microphone wiring, you should find a page with all the popular rigs are listed. Look up bother rigs and make a note of both and compare. Sorry for the late reply.
The 9900 receives with out the microphone plugged in, so you only need 3 wires. tx / audio and the common. A different story if you have a mike with up/down buttons.

A pleasure my friend
Pin 4 on the ss9900 is not for channel change up and down it uses pin 3 the tx line which is used for both tx and channel change

Hi Steve.
Which would you buy crt 9900 or the crt 6900 . Getting back into CB well give it a go anyway . Thanks Dave
Hi David I have both, both are good rigs.
The 9900 costs more but worth the extra, pair it up with a good twig and off you go.
Got one of them radios steve for dx out door not hade time try it yet will do let you no how get on mark from loughbrough leices ct2674
So I can unplug my mic from the CRT-SS9900 and plug it straight into the CRE8900 without having to change the wiring.....is that correct?

god love a trier
So the rx wire goes to pin 2?
The rx wire is not needed, as the 9900 receives with out a mike.
The 9900 receives with out the microphone plugged in, so you only need 3 wires.
tx / audio and the common.
A different story if you have a mike with up/down buttons.
