  • Very Nice Radio
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Nicely appointed radio set off by the blue display and chrome faceplate. It is a bit more complex than some of the lower cost radios, which is to be expected by the additional features it provides. Reading the manual is a must; it's easy to think something is not working. As example, I turned the display off and thought something was amiss with the radio next time I came to use it again. I forgot to push the dimmer button to turn the display back on - had to read the manual a bit more to set things right again. I find it works exceptionally well on SSB. A lot of "punch" there. Once it is set up the way you want to use it there isn't much to do except push the button and talk. I like the "Star Light" illumination of the front panel; it allows me to see exactly which knob or switch to set. A good antenna properly installed is an absolute necessity for all radio equipment; especially for CB because of the limited power set by law. It is not a cell phone or high powered two-way radio system. Mine performs quite well for local intercom use over up to several miles. ... show more

  • Galaxy dx959b
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
The galaxy dx959 has always been my favorite radio. This one is no different. I did some mods to it now I'm getting 100 watts! It's a great radio out of the box I did some tweaking and got it to almost 40 watts then added a rfx95hd. Now this radio will really reach out there.

  • Completely Happy.. Then very upset... 😲
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
At first I thought I had to send it back cause none of the displays were lighting up. Then I checked all the switches and knobs. One of the knobs pushes in to turns all lights completely off and back on. Never had that feature on a radio before. Other then that everything is in great shape. I ordered it new and completely stock and that's the way I recieved it. Completely untouched. None of the packaging was ever opened. Very happy about the product and it was packaged great for protection. I would recommend this seller. I stopped recommending this seller cause I paid for a new Galaxy dx959b not a refurbished one and recieved a refurbished one. I bought this radio to learn cb mods but as I was looking at a schematic and the radio nothing was making sence. Some of the components wasn't there or was different from the schematic. I found out the missing components are mounted on the solder side and they have two diodes connected together in series in like 5 places on this radio where and it doesn't mention that on a schematic. They show only 1 diode. The grease that goes behind the finals is all over the finals to where they can't be read to tell what they are. Some of the solder joints looks to be done by a kid by how sloppy and gloppy they are. The radio works but the part that upsets me the most is that it is suppose to be new not refurbished or used radio. Now I'm going to be worried about how bad some of the components have been treated and will last from their previous abuse witch is why I wanted a new radio so everything will be fresh. ... show more

  • Drift Issues
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Galaxy 959B Well what can I say about this radio that has not been already said. I gave it 4 stars because I do like the looks and receive is very good as well as AM has good audio quality. However like others have said in the past this radio has some major drifting issues after being on for at least a 1/2 hour or so. Really noticeable is on SSB, automatically because of the locked transmit clarifier you will be told in UN-CERTAIN Terms you are OFF FREQUENCY on channel 38 LSB when the skip is in. No matter your explanation of having a locked clarifier does not please many who will sit there and argue with you about it. I guess they never grasped the concept that that's why they make clarifiers to tune in off frequency stations that are slightly off. I'm sure they will never grasp the Ham radio concept that anywhere along the band can be used for transmission even if it's 100 hertz's off the next guy! Anyway sometimes CB'ers have some odd ball idea's about being OFF Frequency. I guess they will never be satisfied. Back to Galaxy this has the Blue display which I like but wish it had 2 more 00;s after the 5th digit and had a more stable circuit to keep it from drifting so much. The cabinet came scratched which to me is poor quality control despite being a New radio and packaged fairly well. Would I recommend this radio I would but buyer should be aware that you will have drifting issues on SSB as far as a AM radio the drifting would not be so much a issue as receive on AM is wider than SSB receive. Would I buy another one for myself Not Likely despite the issues. I will get the clarifier unlocked and solve that problem and get it lined up on SSB but this will not totally fix the normal drifting issue! Thanks for Viewing ... show more

  • some assembly required
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Let me start off by saying that I have never written a review but I absolutely had to with this CB radio. I have had many CB radios, some good and some bad, but I have got to say that the galaxy 959b was the worst. When I first got the radio and installed it I noticed some of the frequency meter digits didn't work properly so I ignored it till I could have it looked at, but a few days later the display lights quit working. So much for star light face plate. Mine was dark as hell. Luckily my local CB shop was able to fix everything, but while inside noticed a few more lose wires. So they fixed them as well. Now after spending 231$ on the CB and another 100$ in labor I am all fixed up. Great radio now. I guess mine was made on a Friday evening at quitting time or by some one on their first day on the job. Never the less beware when buying straight from galaxy. I would recommend an online CB shop. Oh, and the only reason they got 1 star is because I couldn't leave none ... show more

  • Disappointed at first, now completely satisfied.
Style: Blue LEDs and Starlite Faceplate Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Finish on this radio is real nice, just one issue. After tuning the antenna to the radio's instruction manual, it quit working. A few forums had postings about this issue with the ability to broadcast, but not able to receive. Apparently the Audio chip was defective in this unit. SWR meter needle danced like it was picking up a signal, but there was no sound. I tried an external speaker to confirm my suspicions and it didn't drive that speaker as well. I am going to give this model one more shot and will post my findings again after it is setup and running. Received the replacement, installed the unit and now I'm able to transmit and receive. Nice sound. Great modulation. Amazon had also marked this item down after my original purchase. When asked for a price adjustment of $25, they did just that. Now I'm one happy camper. ... show more
