    Galaxy 2527 no RX no TX

    Have a problem with the 2527. No RX & no TX. The radio meter shows its keying up but the modulation meter shows no modulation and also theres nothing on the watt meter? Talk back even works but still no TX on the watt meter. No ears just some static? WHere to start?

    Combining Power supplies

    i put 5 of them in a rack box that looked like a galaxy base station and they worked great. Ran a 2x8 off it just fine. 5 of the 36 amp turned up to 14.6 volts. Only problem i've had is some of the cooling fans have worn out cause i run it day & night. No fuzz in the rx of the radio. Good to GO....!
