I have 2 959's and I did the mods as necessary, especially the clarifier mod is almost a must if you are going to use sideband, which I do. You can use either as a base, I switch around all the time with different radios as I suppose lots do. If you have the equipment and are at all good with...

Well in that case let the cb wars begin, lol

It may not be intentional if he has beams he may never hear you as he hears people you would never hear with a GP and whomever he's talking to may over ride your signal/modulation as well. It's all about conditions as well, I have a guy who says he's in Chicago, Ils that bleeds over both sides...

The one thing I didn't see here was what is your SWR readings altho my DiPol has a perfect match and is noisy as well but my ground plane is for the most part ok but has noisy/static times. I don't know about other areas but skip and noise has been real weird here the past month or two can get...

And I checked my power cords all 3 of them have a 5 amp fuse in them, this may be your problem if only a 2 amp.

I agree, I can't run my 959 and a Pal 250w amp on my Pal 35 amp power supply, the lights blink on the radio. I use different power supplies for both. I would try just the radio and see if it pops fuses, it they still blow then there's other issues. Need more feedback.

Yep, just hope those cheap components work as well, counterfeit is ok as long as it works, look at the Rolex's, but that's another story. I wonder if there is a list of bad components to beware of?

Sounds like a power supply issue maybe, how many amps is the power supply rated for on continuous power and how many volts is it producing under a load? Do either radios have dual finals? 73rds

This is a mixed bag of worms for some cause I purchased a DX-959 from what is supposed to be a referable dealer and there was so many things wrong with it and communication was terrible with this dealer. Since then I have purchased 3 radios from Ebay and 2 of the 3 were excellent radios and...

Well not sure which is the best, don't know if there is such a thing as it depends on what works for you or me, but I sure can say that this A-99 at about roof level sure has done a great job for me, if this one ever gets hit by mother nature I may try a metal GP next, I also have a DiPol up and...
