SOURCE: i hav a galaxy dx 98 vhp my ssb is off can someone help me

I really wish I could help you on here but if you don't have the right equipment then you WILL really mess this radio up.I'd tell you to call Don @ 814-898-1046. He does all the factory repair for Galaxy,Connex and The Generals he's the best tech out there.

SOURCE: Galaxy 979 SSB Modulation Problem Voice Cuts Out.

It sounds like you had a cold solder joint. Leaving it in the sun probably temporarily corrected it. I would take it to a tech to have all the solder joints corrected, unless you are handy with a soldering iron. The problem will most likely come back.

All you have to do is pull the top cover off, which will show the bottom, or trace side of the board. Using a soldering iron, make sure any solder joint that doesn't fully look soldered and make sure the solder is fully covering the joint. If need you may have to add solder.

As for the frequency counter going nutty when you modulate, Don't worry about it. There is nothing wrong. Because when you modulate you are modulating the carrier signal you are changing the signal so the counter will interpret that as a different freq because it cannot differentiate. Freq counters are for use with carrier only. As long as the carrier shows correct, it is right.
