They use the 6900 board these are decent radios. I would take it over one of the radios that have 3600 board for ssb for sure.

95t

in my opinion any mods for 95t are worthless.
dont use any echo on ssb, clafier should be at 12:00
when you start talking. use 1/2 rf power and about 3/4
mic gain. I give a count to 15 so the other party can tune
you to there radio. and they should to the same. once that is done you can open pwr-mic gain.
 
I think he knows how to talk on SSB, Galaxy radio's are known to stink on SSB and they drift like a sail boat. Linearone, I have heard the 93T and 95T are much better on SSB then the 88 or 99. I would agree with #4 that all is needed is a good alignment, should perform number wise like a 2970.
 
My 95T is not to bad on side band. It is alot better then the saturn I had. I am still a little green with side band, but I haven't hade any trouble yet. All and all its a real good radio. Mine has been super tuned but I am thinking about turning it back some because it gets real hot if I ratchet jaw. I usualy run it at 50% power so it doesn't get too hot.
 
My 95T customers haven't had drift problems with SSB more than a few hz temperature drift. As long as they are completely aligned (ALL mix frequencies and levels), they're a very good SSB radio. I recommend keeping the ALC set for a few watts below max PEP levels, to keep things clean and keep heat down.
 
Love the 95T but they do get hot. I use mine for a base and it rocks. Got it set at 40 watts DK and swings to right at 200. I found a little Lasko cage fan at lowes for 13 bucks. Works great with this radio or moble amps used for base. Its called a Lasko personal task fan model 4904.
 
After the initial warm up I notice no drift in my 95T. I run mine at a 20 watt DK swinging to 80 on AM and the varible power wide open and mic gain at 3 o'clock on SSB getting 150 watts out the back door. Never had a bad report with it either on AM or SSB. My locals cant tell the difference between my Alinco DX-70 and my 95T
 
Was playing around today with a 959 mobile and 2547 base on SSB.

After warm up they are fine. Was very satisfied with the range - about 15 miles as the crow flies in a snowstorm from mobile to base with two barefoot radios in the mountains.

Have to go slow with the clarifier as a little movement makes a noticeable jump. . . . . ok once you get the hang of it.
