I have used an HR 2510 for years but recently gave it to my brother who is recovering from chemo to get him interested in radio again.
I bought a non-working Galaxy 99V off eBay that was non-working and fixed it.
I also have a Washington Base with one of those old UFO VFO's for a base but for a mobile I have a Cobra 148 that I modded for mor freqs.
But most of my talking is on SSB, does anyone know of a way to 'tighten up' a Galaxy on SSB? is it a regulator issue?
I haven't used it enough to experience SSB drift (I live in Arizona so maybe it stays warm enough, LOL).
I have a built-in amp on the Galaxy so it puts out about 40 watts on AM and I love the ease of 'going anywhere' a luxury we didn't have back in the 1970's as VFO's was too 'dirty' to use.
Bottom line, other than the BS stupid 'Robot Voice' (who thought this stupid thing up?) I would love to use the Galaxy 99V on SSB if possible.
Thanks in advance all!
PS, I only paid $35 for it and the problem was someone hooked up the added on amp wrong, took 15 minutes to fix it.
