Galaxy DX 959 CB Radio
[Galaxy DX959]

I have worked on radios for years and this radio is in the class with the old discontinued and beloved DX radios. While the modifications may be slightly fewer, the quality and sound is not compromised. This is an excellent radio with quality and features. Buy with confidence.

The Galaxy DX 959 is just jam-packed with features. This radio has more bells and whistles than most other CB's on the market, but more importantly, the features are all very useful. Things like variable power and talkback are modifications we used to have to add to our 148's and Grants, but technology and progress can be a wonderful thing and getting these additions straight from the factory is just awesome.

My only complaints about this radio are the lack of the 6th digit on the frequency counter and the slight drift on SSB, but those are things I can live with in exchange for a radio that comes with everything else I could ask for.

Throw in the fact that this radio just flat out rocks on AM and can handle itself on SSB and you've got a winner that will satisfy the needs of most CBers out there. For those people who run SSB 90% of the time, the complaints mentioned above might be enough to make you think twice about this radio, but for everyone else this radio will allow you to impress locals with audio and shoot some DX on SSB when you feel the itch.

It's no wonder the Galaxy DX 959 has been one of the best selling radios ever for Galaxy and hopefully they'll continue to produce radios like this one that really have all of the features that a 21st century CBer demands.
