galaxy 98vhp vs connex 4600 vs general hp 40?

[ExitThirteen]

For AM use, all 3 radios are fine aside from the solder joint issues, although the Galaxy 98VHP can have heat related issues because the PA unit is on the bottom of the radio, rather than the top, where it should be placed. Same goes for the Connex 4600, if it's a turbo model.

If the radio is to be used as a base, they won't be prone to the soldering problems. If the radio will be mounted mobile, there will be problems. It's not a matter of "if", it's a matter of "when".

TexasPete359 is enjoying AM right now, and for AM, all 3 radios will work ok.

SSB is another story, however (in the case of the 98VHP).

And yes I know the galaxy drifts like hell. I've owned both the general and 98. Ill say I think the general is a tad better.but just my opinion.
