    ICOM 746 PRO

    All right guys, I have tried everything with no luck. The audio sounds muffled and not very loud no matter what I do. Any suggestions? I have tried adjusting the compressor and the transmit treble and bass. No good. Thanks.

    They are not the same company. HY is owned by Chester Massie and Copper is owned by his brother. Good Luck in anyone telling you this though.

    Got me a new Stryker SR-440HP today...

    Dave, I agree with you. The audio is loud and clear. The receiver is sensitive and selective at the same time. I also like the two tone roger beep. Ben

    Got me a new Stryker SR-440HP today...

    I believe that Justin, Northstar, and the rest of the group really did a great job with this radio. I am using one in my pick up and get great reports on the loud clean sounding audio. The receiver is awesome.

    ICOM 746 PRO

    Yes I do and I have read the sections on setting the compressor, and tx treble and bass. I am wondering where to start?

    ICOM 746 PRO

    Is the best way to do this is with the monitor feature so I can hear the audio coming out? I thought about this but have never had a radio with these features before. Thank you.

    The audio does not seem loud and clear on AM with the stock mic. I have a friend that has a 706mkiig and it sounds much better. I am told that the 706 has a Heil element in it. I have never taken it apart. I usually leave the modulation stem between 11 and 12 o ' clock on AM. I was...

    DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A MOD THAT CAN FIX THE AM AUDIO PROBLEM WITH THIS RADIO? THE AUDIO SEEMS MUFFLED. I HAVE REMOVED THE MUFFLER IN THE STOCK MICROPHONE, THIS SEEMS TO HELP A BIT. MAYBE TRYING ANOTHER MIC?

    Cobra 148 GTL (new models) vs. Galaxy 949

    How about a Uniden Grant LT? It is out of production but there are still some out there. I have seen them for $180 or so.

    Who to tune or not to tune my new Galaxy radio?

    Mitsurugi, how am I misinformed? I am sharing my experiences so as to help my fellow electronic enthusiasts. What have I missed? I have spoken to Frank and Karl on several occasions. At the time Karl told me that he and Frank co-owned 1 Stop Electronics. Whether this is true or not I am not...

    Who to tune or not to tune my new Galaxy radio?

    Switchkit, actually I think it is good that Nukeman posted here. I believe he is doing us a service and backing up what I have stated. As far as posting on their forum, it might make it but than would be deleted. Hey maybe we should ask Moleculo if we could have a whitelist and blacklist...

    Who to tune or not to tune my new Galaxy radio?

    I hate to see consumers get taken to the cleaners. I have been 86'd from 1 stop electronics in the past as well. And yes it did happen. I have purchased parts in the past from Copper and H&Y, no problems at all. Is it me or are parts getting harder to come by? I certainly hope cbs and...

    Who to tune or not to tune my new Galaxy radio?

    Frank and Karl at 1 Stop Electronics posted hardcore gay porn on my website in May-June of 2003. This is a fact. I am not sure if Karl is working with Frank anymore or doing X- Force. Pacetronics is another place to stay away from. He hacked into my site in 2003 also. I realize I will get...

    Cobra 150 and 200 GTL

    I had a truck driver come through with one a few days ago and he was very happy with the radio after I aligned and converted the radio for him. I concur with Dave from DTB Radio, I like what I saw. I must admit I had to get out my magnifying glass to see some of those tiny components.
