The DX73V has an oddball channel selector setup, and a channel 9/19 "scan" function. Seems they never got the bugs out of this feature, and the radio has a reputation for going psycho, and jumping channels, or getting stuck on 9 or 19.
This "feature" was never used on any other Galaxy model that I have seen. Probably a good thing, that.

I had one for a year or so and never had any problems with it.It just did not have the kind of power or performance as a 99.
The 73 was like an adopted step child that galaxy has never really claimed as theirs. At one time I sent Galaxy a question about that radio and they told me they never made a 73...lol.
The 73V was NEVER as good as any other radio ever built by Galaxy. As has been mentioned, it had alot of problems with its unusual features. It was a single-final, AM/FM only export. When it DID work, its performance was about the same as the Galaxy 33.
I have had a Galaxy 73 for a couple of years now and never had any problems with it. I have the Top Gun boards in mine and it is lloud as he!!. A friend of mine has a 99 and I walk all over him with my radio!!
