    odd issue with 959

    Sometimes my galaxy dx959 seems quieter than other times. I can hop on and when i transmit on ssb the needle is very active and alive as i'm speaking, jumping from 12-18 watts.... My voice is clear and booming through the talkback, sounds amazing. If there are conditions I can usually make...

    KL 203P install, first timer

    So I finally decided on the amp I'm getting and I'm ready to order it. Just had a few questions first... I plan to just stick my KL 203P under the seat. Does anyone know how long the power cord is on this amp? I am hoping it is long enough to run it straight to the battery. What all will I...

    Requirements for DX

    I know the biggest variable when it comes to shooting skip is atmospheric conditions, and it is possible on the right day even with a stock radio and a decent mobile antenna. But I also know it is extremely unlikely for this to happen with the amount of power most people are pushing over the...

    AM and SSB at night...

    I've noticed that all am and ssb stations are generally dead at night on my cb. There is a lot more background noise than in the day. Is this because the e layer disappears when the sun goes down? Though I also read about radio operators staying up into the night making contacts on the CB...
