    Palomar Electronics Max-Mod. Spoiler alert!

    *** And here's a web-link to a "photo-article" I had produced, concerning a customer's Galaxy DX-95T mobile-radio in the hope to illustrate to others this principal of what I call fake / air-watts, that's got some pretty good "before & after" photos, and showing a side-by-side comparison of an...

    Palomar Electronics Max-Mod. Spoiler alert!

    First-off., I know I'll be most likely be "stepping on some feet" here :( and to others, just "preaching to the choir".!:D But feel the need produce a somewhat mini-novel length of an "explanatory-rant" concerning a few "pet-peeve" subjects of mine, but will also WELCOME any additions...

    Thank ya much for the compliment sir (y) And as to "the-why" almost ALL manufactures have been placing the "hottest-running" transistor in such radios (especially in the "dual-final" models.!) in such a TERRIBLY heat-trapped section "under-the-hood"., all I can say to such a question is...

    I had made a "relatively-nice" donation to CBT some years back, and received in return, a GREAT set of 4-DVDs, which contained almost 15 Gb of files.!! I would GLADLY donate again to help support the folks who are making (and had made) such a GREAT "contribution to the cause" (and hopefully an...
