*Small heat sink on bottom
*AM,FM,SSB mobile
*2 x 2SC2290 Finals
*Vol,sq,mic gain
*Attenuator switch replaces RF gain(cuts down close by signals to elimanate distortion)
*3 way power switch
*SWR meter
*Dual echo control
*Adjustable talk-back control
*Dual claifier with on/off switch
*Backlit face, blue & green
*Two small fans inside heat sink
*Mic jack on front

I like it, is it easily modified to CB? How much is it?

Yes it is easily modified....All the Galaxy radios are. They may be labeled 10M radios but that isn't what they are built for. /forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif

I don't know about a price but I know it's "little brother" the 93T runs about $429.00 /forums/images/graemlins/eek.gif

My favorite is still the RCI 2950/2970 radios. I never heard or had a better radio for SSB in that price range.

Well...10 meters will be pretty worthless in the next couple of years anyways /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
I did, however, work TO4E on Juan de Nove/Europa Island over the weekend on 10SSB for country #327 /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gifWhy, what do you mean?

The sunspot cycle is on the downward slope. == no "skip"

Have you checked out any of these Magnum radios?

The Magnum 357 looks pretty powerfull.

 

[Z3PR]

I've seen them, but I've had Galaxy radio's for years. It's kinda a brand loyalty thing.

 

[bigblock454]

Yea, I have a Galaxy 959 and really like it, I would probably stay with them also.

Copper has the Galaxy 95t for $399.99 Copper
