i talked on the phone with a galaxy technician...he told me to spread the coils in the back by the green resistors to get another 15w

[cbradiomagazine]

@SHAD0Wc0n - I'm surprised a Galaxy tech would say that. The coils are there and are coiled for a reason. Spreading them isn't going to increase your output wattage 15 watts. Spreading the coils may make your meter display more output in some cases due to harmonics being created but you haven't actually increased the output wattage.

@cbradiomagazine yeah he said spread L29 but not L30....i thought that didnt sound right...glad i didnt do that

I got 4 of them and tricked them out the best radio's I ever had and I do my own work on them. And by the way the isn't a freq counter it is a freq display.

Hi. I am undecided on purchasing a Galaxy DX 959 or the Texas Ranger 696F. I saw your audio test on another video and it seemed like the Galaxy had a little louder and more bassie audio. I want to know. Does the DX 959 have bad drift on sideband? I appreciate any opinions. Thanks.

I just got a 959 because of your videos I knew prior to purchase that it was exactly what I wanted. You ROCK! please keep the videos coming, they are very useful and informative. Can you do a video on actually peaking the 959? I know you showed where the pods are but I have never tuned one myself and would like to watch you do it before I give it a shot!!! Thanks a lot!
