I have the DX-440 version of this radio. When the power is turned on the display has what is expected eg frequency, etc. When the power is turned off and the only the clock is supposed to be visible, the display has a lot of faint ghost/fill in characters. Is there a problem with the power supply board? I am using the recommended power supply.

You watch this video and check your power output specially on those channel at chich not transmitting, if there is no power at those channel it mean that you program out of range radio band frequency, so you check your frequency and correct it.

Hi Michael,

Simple answer is NO!!!

The way these radios are designed, as with nearly all 2-way radios, only Channel Numbers are displayed. This is to save space on the LCD display for the other icons to fit in.

I hope this answers your query with satisfaction.

Ragards,
Peter

• There are no white ones at this time. Only Red, Green and Blue on the frequency displays. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

• The UK uses more FM frequencies than AM frequencies. So the CB will work over there just fine but you will need to find someone who uses them frequencies as well or it may no be much fun. Here is a frequency chart for what we in America call import radios shipped from over there. http://macuk.org.uk/cbchart.htm 27.555 FM is the main frequency used in the UK but the Cobra 19 is a strictly AM CB. Also on the link on the far right are the standard 40 channel frequencies from the UK version of CB's and not one is the same as the Cobra 19 as the UK uses FM for their 40 channel CB radios.

• Hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi, my name is John. Welcome to FixYa. Take off the cover, with the circuit side down, take a plastic tuning tool, you can get one at your local electronics store. turn your channel select to midway of the band. make sure your modulation is turned off. Key your mic and tune VR13 to the Maximum on the watt meter. this is for the power. Next, locate VR14 turn the modulation up, and say ahhhhhhhhh, repeat if needed. Thanks for choosing FixYa....John

This radio has three modes, USB, LSB and AM. Each one has a voltage adjustment to center the frequency and they look like metal cans. You do need a analyzer to make this adjustment or at the very least a known frequency standard. Temperature can affect this display.

DX 2517 and DX 2527-
Symptom:Buzzing or motorboating sound in either the transmit or receive.
Problem: TR602 is oscillating
Cure: Replace C602 with a .01uF cap {Cap is located in the power supply board}.
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.

Setting Time
1 Press TITLE repeatedly until the time is displayed.
For details, see “Displaying the Text” (page 13)
2 Press and hold TITLE for at least 2 seconds while
the time is displayed.
The time indication will blink.
3 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the hours while
the time indication is blinking.
4 When the hour has been adjusted, press MODE.
5 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the minutes
while the time indication is blinking.
The time is automatically set 5 seconds after the minute
adjustment. The time can also be manually set by pressing TITLE.
• To synchronize the clock to another clock/watch or radio time
announcement, press and hold MODE for at least 2 seconds after
setting the “hour.” Minutes will reset to “00”. If the display shows
over “30” minutes when you do this, the time will advance one hour.
Listening to Radio
1 Press SOURCE/POWER until a radio frequency
appears on the display.
2 Press BAND repeatedly until the desired radio band
is displayed.
F1 (FM1) F2 (FM2) AM F1 (FM1)
3 Press TUNE to select the tuning mode.
DX SEEK (Distance mode) SEEK (Local mode)
OFF (Manual mode) DX SEEK
• The initial mode is Distance mode.
Distance mode:
Both strong and weak stations will be automatically tuned in
(Automatic Seek Tuning).
Local mode:
Only strong stations will be automatically tuned in (Automatic
Seek Tuning).
Manual mode:
The frequency is manually tuned in steps (Manual tuning).
4 Press or to tune in the desired station.
Holding down or will change the frequency
continuously.
Manual Storing of Station Presets
1 Select the radio band and tune in a desired radio
station you wish to store in the preset memory.
2 Press and hold, for at least 2 seconds, any one of the
preset buttons (1 through 6) into which you wish
to store the station.
The selected station is stored.
The display shows the band, preset number and station
frequency memorized.
•You will need to start from set up or you will not be able to set the mins

Can't help you there. It's most likely that you screwed the modulator up by extending the frequency range. I used to work for Galaxy and I know what happens to a radio when amateurs try to modify them (no offense). If you modify a high power radio such as your Super Star, you're bound to have modulation and SWR problems. In expert advice, never do amateur radio modifications to a high power radio. If you want a more versatile radio, get a Galaxy DX 2517 CB base station. The DX 2517 has PA/FM/AM/SSB/USB/LSB/CW modes, and bands A-F, and a frequency range from 25.615 to 29.205 MHz. The Galaxy DX 2517 has modifications that can be done right at the factory, they are optional however. The only thing I find annoying with the DX 2517 is that it's bulky, it leaves no room for any competition. When it was designed, the engineers left space saving out of the question.
Anyway, Good luck
and
