Very good info 👍 . You’re right, there’s only a few channels above 40 where the sidebanders hang out , and in AM , 26.915 is a nice hotspot I like to fish for skip on Next fix ,, if you could figure out a mod to make these radios quit drifting , you’d get the Nobel Prize in the CB world . I’d love to have one , if they were stable . Very very frustrating . Great radios , love them for AM , but man , that drift is a pain for everyone . An issue I’m very disappointed in Galaxy for never fixing . If Anytone and Stryker figured it out , why won’t Galaxy ? Too cheap to is what I figure . What’s your thoughts ? I’m in no way a radio tech so I can’t say much beyond griping about it

Yeah, that’s always been an issue on all these radios. I know there’s a few ways to make it better, but definitely no way to make them anywhere near as stable as the modern anytones and strykers. Definitely just a lack of caring on their part for not keeping up with the times and sticking with the old technology. That’s why I usually unlock the clarifier, which is something I typically don’t do on a good SSB radio.

Yeah just unlock clarifier like mine. Makes it useable on SSB no complaints keeps the clarifier from seizing up 😅

Excellent just got myself one and now you got the perfect video to make it right. Thanks

Thanks I appreciate you watching and glad you got something out of this. I will be continuing my videos on this radio over the next couple weeks. Still playing with it, learning and having fun!

@@udx-294tn5 yeah same. Just got one and really like it. The drift is no big deal when clarifier unlocked. No different to my pc122 or uniden pro640e. I have subscribed. Megatron 764 Down under.

Why didn't you just use the cable you unplugged from the board to wire into the switch?

@udx-294tn5 3 ай бұрын

The wires on the plug were tied to the wrong pins on the switch to achieve the channels I wanted.

So it won't do side band without this mod or swirches I'm looking to but one but it has the switches he said was for 10 m but thr chart was 26-27mhz only

@udx-294tn5 16 күн бұрын

@@KE8ODY-WV-Ares-Ham-Dad-3O4 this mod is just for adding additional frequencies… it is a SSB radio either way. To get it on 10 meters would require a different mod. This radio will go up to 27.975 with the full 2 switch mod.
