I found a recieve mod for the DX949 and 959 on ebay and was wondering if it works like the ad says or is it just B.S.......and if it does work does anyone have the plan on this mod and what parts are needed?
Because it sound like a pretty neat mod......I would like to try it on my 959 and 2547...
What do you guys think of the Galaxy DX-2547 base, I was thinking of purchasing one but would like a little feedback first from you pros.
I read somewhere it can be moded very easily. 8)

and have got 43watts on the 25, 45watts on the 29 and 55watts on the 78XL. its works :D
And I know some hater will come back with a (I have a 100watt 19LTD, If you don't believe me ask me) comment

I agree with DTB and Switch kit, I love Lou's books and I have also learned alot from these two men, they have forgot more about radios then I will every know! :D
I got a question for you pros, can I use a 100watt 50ohm heavy duty wire wound resistor as a dummy load? and if not what can I use? the easier the better for this newbie.
Thanks Guys :D
So can you tell me if the Clear Drive on my Cherokee CBS 2100 is a Speech Processor? and is it worth the money to buy the SP-1A for my Cobra 29? and can the SP-1A by hooked to a switch so I can control it?
Just your thought on the SP-1a Speech Processor, i was think of buying one, Lou Franklin has one that has to put together whats your thought on that one? are they any good?
A friend of mine has one on a 40 foot tower and has talked all over the world and she runs 400 watts to it and the swr is 1.2
and she loves it, so I wont call it pure junk! :)
So Switch kit what is this 50 watt mod? see I running a box truck out of Detroit to Flint every day but a different truck every day so I can't run a amp in the truck so I need to get as much out of the radio I can, I have a radio bag and a Wilson 5000 mag mount and now I need a good powerful...
Thanks Switch kit for all thr great info, My next purchures will be the Uniden 78XL, I'm not running a amp but I want to get the MAX out of the radio I can, So if I just put the cap in and not the risistor will that increase the power without lowering the dead key? Thanks again
