Ranger 6300 & Galaxy 88 CB's
Hey guys I'm new to the forum. Well I have 2 questions. ..........
1st) I have a Ranger 6300 that I'm putting in my 02' Tahoe. I have a 2' Firestik on the roof. Is that antenna ok for this cb?

2nd) I also have a Galaxy 88. Its used with a chrome housing. I was wondering how much I can get for it.

The thing is, my father had a few trucks and trailers. He past away so everything is mine now. Seeing is how I'm not a trucker (even though its in my blood) I sold the trucks & trailers but now left with a lot of truck parts and what not. I'll be really thankfull on any info on the 2 questions. Thanks guys

I can tell you nothing about the Ranger. Never had one, never shopped for one. A CB technician can make the SWR adjustments for you and insure your choice of antenna is a good one.

If the Galaxy you mention is a DX 88 HL like the one in the picture, and it is a working unit, you may get a couple of hundred bucks for it (from the right person). A dealer probably wouldn't go that high, but an end user would get a fair deal in the $150 - $200 range. You mentioned chrome cover. That ain't stock. You may have a hot-rod radidio there partner.

dont mean to sound rude, but the DX939 is a piece of crap, dont waste your money on it...and its a far cry from a replacement of a Galaxy 99....your talking about apples and oranges....galaxy 99 is MUCH better by a long shot

The galaxy 88/99 are my personal favorites, if your really looking to get rid of the 88, send me a pm and I will pm my email address. If you could get some pictures of it. The other suggestion would be put it on ebay.

Best of luck with it and sorry for the lost of your father.
