I have a DX86V that I purchased from Scott's Radio a few years ago, Scott enabled for 11 meter and tuned. I have been using as my base radio and honestly just don't like it. I rarely if ever use SSB and the receive is horrible, but have always gotten great audio reports on AM. Went back to an old Colt Midnight Special and am much happier, plus the receive is great.

This forum, although I rarely if ever post, has been very helpful to me and this is a way I can give a little back. If you want it, pay for actual shipping from 47025 and it's yours.

Also have a DX55 in my Freightliner that I dislike just as much, just not quite ready to move it out yet. I know I sound like a Galaxy hater, but really haven't been impressed. For my taste I have had much better radios as in Cobra 25, 29, Grants, etc.

  • @ Hambones amps:
    Does anyone know if you can replace the 2290 in a galaxy dx 93t twin turbine with a 2sc2879 red dot? If so, what would have to be tuned?
  • @ ShadowDelaware:
    Hambones the entire amp section would have to be retuned, and the rf transformers re wrapped.
