What about the 827's the mosfet Galaxy 959's came with? The Galaxy tech made it sound good that they've went from the 754's to the 827's.

upgrading regulators
- Thread starter 9Lives

Upgrading to a higher rated part will do you no better than the origonal if you do not INCREASE the surface area of the heatsink. If you allow them to heat up they will both fail at the same tempeture under the same conditions.
Radioman mentioned this in one of his posts. You are just wasting your time and money on this myth. The 2sb754 is more than capable of doing it's job being the radio hasen't had every last milliwatt squeezed out of it, and or modded to the hilt.
There is no reason to "upgrade" on a propperly tuned radio.

I have a dought the resaon for improvement was just changing parts. But I have seen stranger things happen.
that would have more of an effect on performance then just changing regulators.
In anycase, you really wont see any difference by just changing out the before mentioned transistors under normal operating conditions.

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=300843866570&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=98059723896 just an idea. I know that others have a better opinion & are much more knowledgeable than I am.
I have a new EKL 2SB817 that I was going to put in my 959 but I sent it at the time to DTB. He preferred to put his own parts in. I can see the logic in that. Is EKL components of any quality?

Well.. take it with a grain of salt.. I wouldn't Lety that sway me away from ekl. I think what they do is great.. they're tailored to cb it just seems to me that they could be compromised.. they're cheap tho.. doesn't mean I don't have done ekl parts in my drawer lol! I just trust the irf520n name more than erf2030. I don't know about the part you have.. I would actually like to know if it worked well
