Well, the Dak IX, and the Dak X should have the same voltage light, correct? Well, I have a Dak IX, so later this evening, I will dig it out, plug it in, and check the voltage. I am assuming it is either 9V, or 12V. It is very possible, that it somewhere in between, but I am like 80% sure it is...

Sorry, but not off the top of my head. I do have the printed manual that I downloaded from CB Tricks - Home Page. If you are not a member, please donate atleast $1 per download. It helps keep the hobby alive. Without websites like CB Tricks, all of us novice techs would be sunk. 73s to ALL!

Hey guys. I had my shack setup pretty decent before I moved. Antron A-99 about 50' off the ground, and about 8' off the peak of the house, LMR-400 coax, all the from antenna to radio, with RF Choke inline. I ran a Galaxy Saturn(non-Turbo), and it sounded good with a power mic. I installed an...

Yeah, I have to find time to put my antenna up again, since I moved. I live further out in the country now. I can go higher now, if I can get a high enough tower. I just can't afford to buy it new. I would love to find like 80' for so that a few people don't want. That would be real nice. I have...

Ok, NP. I can't find the file on my laptop, so I will probably have to rescan the manual. It's all good. I probably have it on the desktop, and I don't have this laptop on my network, on purpose, so I will have to go check it at the desktop, or just rescan it.

I am sorry man. I keep forgetting to send you those files. I will send you a PM with my phone number. Please call me to remind me. I forget A LOT! I take a lot of medication due to being Bi-Polar, and having Crohn's disease, and A.D.D.! So if you call, I will send it while I am on the phone.

Ok guys, I am back with more stupid questions. I am almost ready to get my LeBaron painted, so its now, or never! I have a 1990 Chrysler LeBaron convertible. I am running a Galaxy 88HL, Boomer Deluxe 400HD, with a Browning BR-78(I think), and a Tram tri-magnet mount. It's positioned just behind...

Most of the EPT3600 boards are the same. Most Galaxy export radios use the same board. Some of them are wired slightly different, but the same board non the less. I will fire up my laptop this evening and email you what I have, including the original owners manual in PDF. As long as you DO NOT...

P.M. me with your email address, and I will send you everything that I have found on the regular Saturn(non-Turbo). Also found a lot of info on the Dak IX as well.

His eBay id is l3ite_me. If you PM me your email address, I will email it to him. I don't give out email addresses just like phone numbers. Especially on a message board. I don't remember where exactly he is located though. He just built another one cuz he just sold all the parts out of it. I...

I will indeed. I am having a problem with amps at the moment. I hooked up my Boomer Elite 400HD and it is like its on SSB for some reason. It only shows the tx light on modulation. The blue streak 200 that I have works fine. I don't know what the problem is. Might take it to the local A$$, I...

Thats awesome. I don't know what exactly I am putting out, but I bought the ERF-2030 fets to put in it, but have temp lost interest. I got frustrated with it, and just gave up on it for a while. I wanna try upgrading the power section, and using 1 ERF-2030 to drive 2 ERF-7530's, or 2 ERF-2030's...

Thanks George. I appreciate it. I was trying not to plug in the radio with it all apart, and the frequency board hanging off as it was, but the other night I did it. I found the two pins on the TR36, and the TR38 that give me the positive and negative for the 8V. I soldered the wires, and...

BTW, don't mistake ignorance for stupidity. Just because someone asks a "Stupid question" does not mean that they aren't smart enough to figure it out. I was just hoping that someone had known. I mean the radio is about 25 years old! Usually inside of the first year, someone has ripped it apart...

Besides, how am I going to learn, if someone is always doing it for me? My question is; Will connecting approx 120mA draw from the 2SB525, effect the output power of the radio? If not, which of the two legs would I draw the power from, while it is "in service", or working? RCI gave me the...
