Thanks guys ... As mentioned I was able to get this at a price I couldn't pass up so I purchased it as a back up to my Galaxy 99 which is long gone. How would you rate this with the 99 or others.
RCI 6300HF From 1-10 how does this radio rate

That should be a great radio. As a stand-alone, it has more power than the 99 (which is what I run). I'm just assuming that they are similar to the Galaxy 48t and the Connex 4600, which are known to be good radios. Really, the only thing the 99 has that your radio doesn't is a large meter and SSB, and SSB doesn't work well on a 99 anyway. I guess the 99 also has robot voice and voice changer, but who needs that garbage? I think that will be a great sounding radio with good receive, you'll probably like it better than your 99. You need to make sure your SWR is good, that radio will get hot in a hurry with high SWR.

We hooked up the radio tonight with a Wilson 1000 ... Match is 1.2-1 ... Recieves well and talks well. I am very pleased with the 6300. I don't care if I can't talk to the next state but I do care that it talks w/o interfering with thise around me. Again I appreciate all your feedback.

Ok...I errored. When I got it out to take a good look at it... it doesn't have the big heat sink on the bottom ... It does have a big heat sink commming out of the back where the ant. attaches. I think the tech said it was putting out over 50w... I told him I didn't care about the ability to talk over someone but clear transmission with good reception was inportant to me. He said the ant. plays a very big role in the operation of the CB and the Wilson ioj his opinion was a very goood mag mount ant. It works fine with the Cig. lighter for the power source. It is a 2001 model. Not sure if the technology has changed that much since 2001 but the Tech did say the was a very good unit.
