What is the average mic gain set at for galaxy 959 from 959 users?, I have been setting it at 12 oclock but some say its not good for rcving at their end so have moved it back to 9 oclock..
Whats your setting
I kind of hate to do this, but I'll answer your question, with a question. lol
Why aren't you turning it all the way up? And now for my second question. What type of mic are you using?
I'll let you get back to us and then go from there.
marven :roll:

There's a few factors Doc , Has your radio been tuned ? either a clipped diode or 100% scoped out are 2 different ways in itself ,As Marv said , what kind of mic is it ? I find that most radios tuned to spec's and no clips will sound very well with there own stock mic's , In this case it usually is best to talk in the mic at your mouth across the element , maybe half to all the way on the mic gain should work (do you talk loud or soft) more factors ! with most stock mic's guys need to talk into them rather then a few inches away , unlike power mic's and radios that have been clipped so to speak , it's not rocket science Doc , sometimes it's hit and miss , I understand you hating to do it Marv ........it's the so many factors involved. Sometimes Doc , a good ole fashion radio check should lead you in the right direction. Good luck to you.
that's a very decent radio in my book Doc , and I have heard them stock with there stock mic's and they are very clean sounding radios with plenty of audio with there own stock mic's , 12:00 O-Clock sounds about right then Doc. Just think what it would sound like tuned up real nice like. (-: Enjoy
hi. my 959 has vr16 turn about 3quarters of the way up. mic gain on front of radio turned up all the way. and i use a astatic road devil power mike slid aboutv half way. modulation goes to about 95 percent. get great reports. everybody says sounds great. excellent radio have 4 of them now.
Will try that, I did turn vr13 up yesterday 3/4 and it helped on ssb , I plugged my turner plus 3 into it, and the mfj meter is swinging, and the swr is 1 to 1 also.
We should become bench testers for galaxy..
tnx , 73
