You either bought it used or you played with the inside because if the alc is all the way open then you have been inside it.got a watt meter to turn up the power.you will also need a volt meter. take it to some one that knows what to do and let them fix it.

I have the same radio. But I never had this problem with the Galaxy, only with my Midland. Sometimes like Jim said the switches get dirty and must be cleaned. My problem was that the receive gain knob was moving on its own on my midland, something called auto adjust, but the Galaxy has a similar function built in the radio's PC board that allows more clearer listening and transmit. You cannot remove this component because it is in the PC board itself, however you can isolate it or you can have it calibrated by a licensed professional.

Hope this helps!

SOURCE: Galaxy 99v off Frequency

it is either a bad soilder on your crystal or your crystal is going bad

Likely the radio has a blown detector diode on the board as FM uses a special demodulation detection circuit called a quadrature detector or a discriminator detector the SSB circuit uses a product detector so the only other thing used in detection is the Am detector Diode. That is the first place to look if it is not bad it will be somewhere in that circuit.

SOURCE: frequency counter is running on

You are obviously off frequency. Two things. One does it just cycle 2, 3, or 4 frequencies and then continue to recycle those same frequencies despite going up or down in channels? If this is the case there is a board in the CB called a PCB board. If you open your radio it is a little circuit board. Held onto the side of the radio by a screw and has two or three connectors leading to the board. Replace that little board and your radio will be good as new. I have seen radios come in my shop many times and this is the fix. What that board does is send a signal to the crystals to start mixing a frequency. When it goes out it just sticks where it is at or only mixes a small few frequencies. Here is a link to a place that can take care of you. http://maycomcomm.com/ I trust Maycom with all my new Galaxy parts. Now for the other option. Is it just randomly switching frequencies no matter the channel? We call this oscillating. If this is the case it could be a bad crystal. Could also be a bad PLL. If the CB is Oscillating I recommend you take it to a tech with an oscilloscope to have it repaired. You have to be able to set the mixers and an oscilloscope is the only way. This is the most technical part of the CB (front end)

How to use ssb usb am cb radio

  • Well, AM is Amplitude Modulation and Sideband suppresses the carrier and uses only the top half (upper sideband) or lower half (lower sideband) of the wave.

  • Whether using AM, USB or LSB you are on the same frequency although if someone is on USB and you are on LSB you will not be able to understand what the other person is saying because you are using different parts of the wave. So 27.185 (channel 19) on AM, USB or LSB is still 27.185.

  • If you have further questions please let me know.

  • If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
  • Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

Frequency counter displays two digets high from hump on fine clarifier adjestment on usb.27.186 insted of 27.185. also in am mode shows dead on with clarifer hump until mic is keyed thin dropes from 27.185...

Turn that fine clarifier a 1/4 turn or so to the right. I own a Galaxy DX99V and sometimes if that clarifier is just right it will drop down a hundredth of a MHz just like that when the mic is keyed. Your radio is just fine. Just adjust that clarifier a tad. The Galaxy DX99V is one of the best radios out there. I love them. -73-

Galaxy 99 has same frequency 27.185 on am also on upper side and lower side band how come?? thank you

The frequency doesn't change when you change to USB or LSB. Basically the AM frequency takes up a certain amount of space, known as bandwidth, so it could fill in for example use 50 hertz above and below 27.185 giving 100 hertz bandwidth. When you use sidebands the am bandwidth is split in two so the upper side band would use the 50 hertz above 27.185 and the lower side band would use the 50 hertz below. The idea is that twice as many operators can operate without interference.

RG 66,99,DX2517 Replace Q54 2SB754 60watt 7A with a higher power 2SB817 100 Watt 12A. Derating of this component will cool operation, provide better voltage stability,decrease wobble, allow voltage increase to 14.5 volts comfortably. (replace 10 volt caps in this section of the radio to a minimum of 16 volts before increasing supply voltage to this level)and provide faster swing rise time, Replace Q37 2SA473 to a 2SA1012-0 or ECG153 this will improve the clarity and volume of the modulation and it will also run a lot cooler.
