I should have one Tuesday for review - have to see how it performs.

too much bling for a ssb radio .they should stick to AM radios .

looks nice. if it works at least as good as dthe 959 or better then it might
make a decent ssb mobile.im glad to see more ssb cb radios coming back
i mean bacially we got 2 choices the galaxy has 3 models but basically
the SAME radio with a different faceplate or smaller design but pretty the same inside.
and we got the cobra 148 front mic.so without counting the exports ssb radios
our choices are really limited. hopefully connex kept thier am audio combined
with a decent ssb would make a nice mobile.gonna keep my fingers crossed

Don't see echo. What self-respecting truck driver would want a Connex radio without echo?

Looking foward to CB Radio Magazines test of the radio before I buy one, it might have the Galaxy drifting issue which would make it a no sale for me

 

[Carl]

my guess it uses the same ranger 6900 series mainboard that the newer galaxys and superstars use. almost certonly going to drift a bit as every other radio with that main board does.

 

[Tucker442]

well that's not a good thing I had a 6900F great hearing radio but another drifter but a lot better than the Galaxy I had

Fake it Fake it,, say say everything everything twice twice lol lol..

That is one FUGLY radio.

Hmm.. Another SSB radio with no freq counter. Why can't someone make a SSB rig with a 6 digit freq counter and no drifting issues? I'm tired of having to add a freq counter as a external unit to my radios. I can't seem to find one with a counter just a freq display and I agree this is one FUGLY radio. I'm sure someone on here is going to comment on my drift box 949 yer it drifts and that is why I would love to replace it but can't find what I want.

Magnum S9 has a 6 digit counter and works very well

 

[Carl]

buy a used hf radio, no drift and you wont find anything that works ssb better.

i had a magnum s9, it was a pos with no cross channel rejection and it drifted on ssb
