    Galaxy DX929

    I feel like such a dork:oops: I meant I am NOW looking at the 980. I met another guy on a different forum that says he can get it 18-20w. But I hear not many techs can do that. But I am also thinking about a box. BTW thanks for your input.

    Is an Export the same as a 10 Meter? I am not looking at the Uniden 980 but was thinking about a 10 Meter.

    Galaxy DX929

    Thanks for the reply. I don't need SSB, is that what you meant by extra channels? One of the reasons I wanted the 29LX or the 880 is they are a newer design and they have weather channels. He said the Cobras have poor WX cards. So I was just thinking about getting a handheld Midland WX radio.
