Thanks Nomad, you explained it well. That's what confused me... they all have the SSB on the front .. so I didn't know the difference except one said SSB delay and biasing one said SSB delay. Thank you for your time. 73's

I ran across a page that sells the Base style amplifiers and the wording has got me confused. All the amps I look at say AM-FM-SSB for modes at the bottom, however the wording is a little different in the discription. For instance, Some say SSB biased, and some say SSB bias and delay. Take...

I fixed it, it was that Variable inductor. I took the one out of my other 69 just to try it and it instantly tuned in and hadn't acted up since. As far as leaving it and let it warm up, I tried that and it actually got worse. Now, when you change channels they pop right in and no counting up...

Hello Folks, I have two of these radios and the newest I ordered off of Ebay. The radio developed an issue while changing channels and it sounds like an oscillation problem. sometimes it does it only after warming up, sometimes as soon as I turn it on. I noticed the frequency counter will...

I apologize if this is in the wrong location, please move it if necessary. I have a Ranger 69Base I bought for parts and it has a missing L42, and L40 has a cracked slug. I know these are variable inductors and near the final section but I have no idea what the values of these are, or a...

Well, I said they had 3... now Zero! "Pre-Order. This item is on the way and is expected to ship in under 2 weeks. Sale $429.95" Should've kept my mouth shut until I bought one :(

" I’d still like to have a 95T Galaxy, so everyone get what you will." ...And that My Brother is what makes the world go around. Cheers!

I was interested in buying it today and only place I could find them was Wa***tt, they listed as having 3 in stock at $429, I believe. Not sure if I should list sellers. But I think I'll wait until I can see what Les can do to one. 73's

Les released a video on opening it up on 03/03/21 here:

These meters always measured Peak not RMS, I should see peak, I have on every radio I've ever had using this style. The Galaxy DX98 VHP Advertised 200 watts PEP and I saw more than that on these meters and I should see the Peak on this one. I understand the radio will not do 100 watts RMS...

Hello all, I've been away from CB for about 30 years and just getting back into it. I like the black box style Galaxy radios back in the day and I just recently bought a RCI 69 Base because I like the CB style functions on the front of the 69 over the 2995DXCF that looks more for amateur to me...
