You will see a cable which runs from the back right hand side of the radio to the front right hand side. At the end of the cable a 4 pin connector goes to the board. Remove the cable from the connector at the front of the radio. The anytone connector only has 3 pins and it connects to the 4 pin connector in such a way that the pin nearest the front of the radio isn't used. The DR-135 doesn't work in the same way as the AT-5555 in terms of manual programming. On the AT-5555 if you change the frequency manually the radio will remember it when you leave the channel and go back and it only affects one channel at a time. On the DR-135, if you adjust the frequency up to end in 5 manually, the radio will go up by that 5 on every channel, even on different banks.
I just left mine with the channels ending in 20 as it was less hassle and I couldn't tell any difference anyway.

And then you just load that file back up. Oh, you jumped straight in without saving a copy and now you've royally fcked it up? It's not fcked up at all. It will be fine, stop trying to scare him.

Are they easy to program from the PC? Thanks, Dave. 8/Feb/2014, 10:04 pm Freebander Global user Registered: 02-2014 Posts: 17 Karma: 1 (+1/-0) Re: Alinco DR-135DX Morning Dave, I have a superstar 6900n which is virtually the same thing. Have only just taken it out of the box to program it and it was very straight forward. To be honest with you, most of the programming, if not all, can be done via the keyboard on the front panel itself. I have version six software which also adds more programming features to the 'on board' so to speak.
However, if you don't want to faff around with programming all the different frequencies yourself, there are 'DAT' files already available for you to download off the net somewhere, may even be some here on the forums but I haven't looked yet. As for a comparison to the 'cre8900' I would imagine they are the same radio. Here is a Youtube video I found for you.
Here is another review by 'Simonthewizard' As for my 6900, I can only receive at present, and cannot confirm TX, but RX is quite good. The whole feel is a little 'plasticky' for me, and I don't like the way every thing stays in memory for a particular channel, ie, if you move the carifier, when you move away from that channel, it keeps the settings you made whilst on there, so when you go back the channel is not on the correct frequency. You have to remember to undo all changes before you leave, which to me is ridiculous, however, having said that, you do get a lot of radio for your money, and other reviews have quoted it as being pretty stable on SSB.And here is a review of my particular model, the Superstar ss6900n v6 Hope this helps Dave.

Just needed to make the right decision before looking at the Grant2 or Lincoln. 9/Feb/2014, 11:31 am Freebander Global user Registered: 02-2014 Posts: 17 Karma: 1 (+1/-0) Re: Alinco DR-135DX You're welcome Dave Pound for pound the SS6900N is a better radio after reading reviews on all three, but I must say I do like both the new Grant & Lincoln, but compared to the SS6900N (or clone equivs) they are way over sign in to see URL that is.
