Galaxy 10 Meter Base Radio DX2517         $479.95

The Galaxy DX 2517 Base Radio replaces the DX 11B. it is the first model using the next generation main board. Advantages include Increased frequency stability for improved sideband operation; Increased sensitivity on both AM and SSB; and Uses Conventional parts (instead of surface mount parts) for ease of service.

With 10 Watts on the AM/FM (Amplitude Modulation/Frequency Modulation) and 25 Watts on the SSB (Single Side Band), Galaxy's DX2517 is a step ahead of the DX11B and is covered by Galaxy's Two Year Parts and Labor Warranty.  See Introduction to Galaxy 10 Meter Radios for 10 Meter Radio Comparison Chart.

Note: There is a 4 to 1 ratio of Peak power to dead key power at 100% modulation. i.e.. a 10 Watt radio will have a peak power of 40 watts at 100% modulation. You can get a bigger boost by over modulating, but the signal may start to distort. Is the DX2517 a 50 watt peak radio? RoadTrucker recommends using the bird meter, which has a good reputation for accuracy to prove it.
