^^^^^^this^^^^^^^ Galaxy is prone to bad solder joints. I have had my DX95t2 apart 4-5 times for the same thing. It seems to be really sensitive to temp changes which is a BIG problem for a radio that is mounted in my Jeep.

I'm not positive but I think that English is the official "recognized" language for HAM communications. That certainly doesn't mean that everyone recognizes this but for the most part the official HAM guys will be speaking english.

That's some funny $hit right there! LOL

Sitting in the parking lot of my sons MD office waiting to go in. Thought I would see if skip was still rolling when the assistant for the MD Taps on my window asking if I was talking on my radio? I said yes with a question on my face. She informs me that my whole conversation was broadcasting...

Definitely want to get my ticket! I'm tired of trying to plow through the "mud" on 11 meters.

My first REAL DX with my Galaxy 95t2! I'm officially hooked! The propagation is rolling strong across the pond today. Good times.

New developments yesterday. I switched to PA and when I switched back the PA was still on. When I talked I got TB in my radio and on the PA. I had to unplug the PA speaker to shut it up. It's like the selector switch has a cross or short. Any ideas? Thanks for the help. Sent from my iPad...

Haha that's some funny $hit right there! What tow is he actually in? I thought he was local just with a1000W linear. I never tried to find the exit. Just assumed. LOL Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Yup. That's what I got from the conversation. LOL

The only thing I'm basing my info on is xforce's web site. 500W MOSFET pulls fewer amps than the 500W pill unit. I'm just starting to look for an amp so that's why I came to You guys. Thanks for the input. I will keep researching.

Ok I'm probably stepping on a bee's nest but here goes. I'm really looking for an amp. for my Jeep Wrangler. With that said it doesn't have the best electrical system and pulling 70 amps on the battery/alternator for an extended time would probably fry things. MOSFET amps seem to...

They make a mount plate for the side of the console but I just used four screws and set it at an angle and she has been fine. Here's what the mount looks like. It will limit how far up the passenger seat can move up. Not a problem for me but just something to keep in mind.

Actually I mounted it on the side of my center console. I will try to load a pic later but it is mounted at a slight angle. I didn't want to fish the coax up the dash plus the overall size of that radio made it almost impossible to mount on the dash.

Thanks. Makes me feel better.

I know most of you guys never even use the PA feature on your radios but I use mine quite a bit. My radio is mounted in my Jeep Wrangler and I use the PA to talk to my spotters when four wheeling and I am an Firefighter and use the PA for all that entails. The issue with the PA is that when...

Thanks. Now I'm in the market for a new antenna. One issue I have and the main reason I went with the mid load antenna was to elevate the majority if the antenna above the top of my jeep. I like the predator especially the 17" that will keep the antenna above my jeep.

Ok so Antenna would be more important? I will look into those. Does Sirio make a mobile antenna? The first google search just found base station models. Thanks for the quick responses guys.

Which would be the most important especially for a mobile unit. Just trying to decide if I need a better Antenna setup or more amps. Currently running a Galaxy DX 95t2 40w dead swinging to 150w. Hustler FG 27 s mid load antenna with SWR= 1.2/ch1 and 1.5/ch 40. I spend most of my DX...

This is the one I use. It puts your antenna further up which will help txt and rx. http://www.arizonarockyroad.com/antennamounts.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
