    I can’t part with this radio. The way I have it set up..... I get compliments on how loud and clear it is. I have a DX44 for a back up.

    I do not blame you. I own the original General Lee with the rebel flag, and 10+ khz switch, a Superstar 158EDX, and an older Connex 4800 DXL. He** i still run the old Palomar 250 linear amp i bought back in the early 90's.

    My dad bought the original Galaxy 2100 and the identical Texas Star version back in the earl 1980’s. I think they were the first Galaxys ever made. Both clear, good ears, a little frequency drift until they warmed up, and you could hear the frequency counter pulsing a little.

    They both still work and we will never part with them. I had an original connex echo board put in mine 25 years ago.
