    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    Not asking in an argumentative way, just genuinely curious, why do you feel that way? Have there been some unhappy customers? Serious question.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    Whatever is done, they did. Whatever it’s for, I don’t know. But supposedly they did a “receiver mod” or whatever.

    Base Sirio 827 Base Antenna

    Anyone have any experience with the Sirio 827 5/8-wave groundplane vertical? I’m considering getting one this Summer and putting it on the roof for CB use as well as trying it out on 10M-20M.

    By “both mods” do you mean the usual tune as well as the receiver upgrade? Yes, I had Bells do both.

    That should put an end to it.

    So I want a Galaxy DX-979...

    He was splattering 1MHz wide even on my 7300. My Galaxy has nothing to do with it.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    I'd like to find someone to align it properly, but I did pay extra for a receive "mod" and the receiver seems excellent in the radio. I just don't know who I could trust to send it to.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    I did, but not much activity on the thread. I was considering a few radios but in the end I picked this 94HP for it's classic looks and functionality as well as the side mic jack since I'm running a remote mic jack in my mobile. I'm not too worried about drift because it's dead-on frequency...

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    C'mon man, don't make it all doom and gloom. I just dropped $425 on this thing. I need some good news. lol It works, but this one radio from them and I'm done with Bells. I just wish it weren't so damn hard to find a decent tech to buy from. Mark at Fine Tune seems to be a great tech that puts...

    Screwdriver did this one himself. Sent me a little card with the specs of the tune and his signature.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    That's a good question, but one of the screws on the other side of the case is so tight that the head just wants to strip when I try to unscrew it.

    Oh, and the limiter is still intact.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    Yeah, I can do that tomorrow. Not much I can do besides live with it though. I was talking to my local friend on 10M SSB with it and he said with the stock mic it’s loud and on the cusp of overmodulation with the mic gain set to 1 o’clock. Any less and I get quiet.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    With the variable carrier all the way up it keys 25W and swings about 100W PEP.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    Oh, and I put it on a dummy load as well to quell and doubts about the antenna. Same results.

    Galaxy DX-94HP from Bells... Backwards Swing

    That's what the transmatch is for. Seems to work fine, but it's far from ideal. I don't think it will affect my readings.
