Just got a ground plane kit for my a99 clone, but It's a used kit. It looks like it would work ok, but the ground radials look really old and discolored. Can I switch these ground radials with francis antennas that are 5' long? Will they work just as well?

Yes it did have the mosfets in it. I had the mosfet amp changed out for one on a Connex 4300-300 I had. The Connex was modified. I had the 1446's change to the 2879's. Then I thought that the 98VHP would be nice to have with the 2879 in it. So I asked GRTS, and he said it would probably work...

quick being lazy! tell me.

I've got something similar to this radio but it has SSB. It's a 98VHP with 4x 2879 pills in it.

If your 3 pill box is already overdriving the 8 pill. Don't you think a 4 pill radio will? Although, I would probably put it in front of a 8 pill anyways.

Wait no longer the biggest gawd dam Galaxy radio in the World is out, but only I have it. :) 98VHP with 4X2879 pills in it. Dang nice radio if I do say so myself. Galaxy needs to come out with one better before I buy another. :) Maybe a 1X4 or a 2X4 somthin'. :) Galaxy really...

You could also look at the Icom-7800 :) great looking IHMO.

Thanks QRN. I like the radio even though it's not the latest and greatest. It's perfect fit for someone that is just starting out I think. I was just worried that I was being taken on the price. The radio was repaired and the amp is being repaired the 20 amp power supply works. I don't need the...

I've noticed lately that when I go to a different channel. The signal strength on that channel is different than the channel I was on. For instance. I was on channel 19 talking to a local and then we switched to channel 27 the signal I was receiving was different. It was lower he sounded...

Yeah, I thought about the liability issue and I thought about not giving them any at all, but the guy seemed lost at to where to put them. Do RF choke cause problems? Hmmm, didn't know they did. Well, hopefully not. The other neighbor I just gave the RF chokes to him and told him where to...

Well solved the issue on my TV by using the RF snap on chokes. I put them on the audio section coming into the TV and also put them on the cable coming in from the outside. and Into the cable box. I can't hear a thing now but I'm not sure about the neighbors. I offered them some RF choke...

Thanks for replys. Hopefully the $425.00 price tag for all the above is worth it now. Repaired radio like new now. the amp will be like new. and the power supply.

I hate to say it , but I bought the deal. I did got the whole package radio,amp and the power supply. I got the Icom-735 after it was repaired and the tube amp is being repaired also and the Astron 20amp power supply for $425.00. The tube amp does about 150watts pep. Not really useable...

I'm buying a Icom-735 with a dx250 tube type linear and a Astron 20 amp power supply for $475.00. Now it turns out the the radio needed some repair and it cost about $150.00 to repair. Now the cost is $535.00. I told him to keep the Astron 20 amp power supply since I don't need it, so I...

My radio does 30 watts dk swings up from there. It's set to 4:1 carrier to modulation. I still come over my TV when it's muted with my 4 watt radio, but very lightly I can just hear it if i put my ear to the speakers. One of my neighbors is 60ft away and the other is right next door. The...

I put the PDC-1089 low pass filter in line and it didn't seem to help. I still come over stereo speakers and a TV with an antenna. Will this Bencher YA-1 work better?

Yeah, free standing tower is what's next.

Well got the fiberglass pole up today. Radio is working fine without the grounding cable or wire I was going to use. The pole itself is a bit on the weak side. I'll definitely need to guy this pole if I go beyond the 20ft mark. Right now it's like a large fishing pole. :) 30ft like I...

Any of you guys think I should run a ground wire to the antenna with this fiberglass pole and would 8 gauge wire be enough?

All that Chrome! :drool: Would this radio do 600watts freecell? To bad It's not a Galaxy. Still the original owner of the Biggest Galaxy Radio In the World! 600watts.
