    I will do that when I can. The radio is now in the big rig and it worked nicely all day.

If the other is crap both...

    Galaxy 88hl warble

    It does it on usb and a little on lsb and its sort of noticeable on am but the average joe wouldn't notice it on am.. It does have a slight funny oscillation sound in rx but its useable. hope that makes sense..

    Galaxy 88hl warble

    The power supply runs my 100 watt HAM rigs no prob. The 88 is stock and is running 10 watts on AM so dont think its a power issue but you never know. Ill hook it up in the truck and cross my fingers.

    Why Smoke Free?

    If the radio has been around smoke for a long time the whole inside of the radio, especially the hi-heat areas, they get a gunky buildup of tar. Not fun to clean and will lower the life expectancy of the radio. (as well as the owner who smoked around it). PS:I just bought a ic-7000 that was...
