    I am pretty sure it's a 2x4. The first two pills have a smaller out put transformer and the input transformer looks to stand alone. I can't see where the output goes because of the cap but I bet it goes to the input combiner of the four pill section. Like I said I'm no expert but that is what I see.

    I'm almost certain it's a 2x4...That said, if you haven't already burned something up in it, I would find a different radio to use with it...A Galaxy 98 is just too much radio for a 2x4 Amp period...

    2X4 Amps are over driven to start with...You need to be using something along the lines of a stock Cobra 25 or 29 or some other basic CB Radio and let the Amp do the rest...

    No, but there's a shop down off I-20 called Kilgores that does good work, he is located off I-20 in South Fort Worth just west of Arlington...817-478-2111

    You can tell it's a 2x4 by looking at the first set of pills on the left and the smaller transformer...If it were a straight 6, everything would be the same...If it use to be a 2x4 that someone modified to be a 6 pill, it would be out of balance still configured that way.
