Great quality I expect from Galaxy Great quality I expect from Galaxy. Was delivered quickly and well packed. I have had Galaxy radios in the past and was not disappointedby this one. Just recommend taking it into your local radio shop for a $40 peak and tune….
Great radio with retro look Very pleased with this rig, particularly with the on-board SWR meter and how the unit took to my existing antenna. I use a 5/8’s Firestick antenna and had trouble tuning it to my old CB (1.6 : 1 was the best I could achieve), but when I plugged into the new Galaxy, the SWR immediately jumped down to 1.1 : 1! I thought it was too good to be true, but then verified with my external SWR meter and confirmed the reading.
Everything you could ask for I purchased this radio after having to return another brand of radio I purchased that was not functioning properly.
