Amp or Export?

My personal recommendation would be a Magnum 257HP. Small/compact, drift-free performance, all modes, variable power, and will give you 60-65W SSB with no fuss all day. Have it properly tuned by a good tech, set it and talk on it! The only thing I'd do is remove the speech compressor, as it tends to make the audio a bit "muddy" if you really get into it. I removed it on mine and it made my audio smoother.

Galaxy and Connex radios are known for drift problems, I'd stay away from them since you're planning on running mobile where you'll have warm/cold environments. Good luck!

What is the CLEANEST, easiest, most efficient way to push 60+ watts from a mobile? AMP or EXPORT? Good amp or Export recomendations?

RCI2950dx, and or a Uniden chasis like the lincoln or Hr2600 with a Texas Star 350 or 500. Excellent combination if you would like to use an external amplifier. A good match with excellent stability.

Or a Galaxy 93t without an amplifier, but as it was posted earlier they tend to drift a bit.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
