[mudder]

MY galaxy 99 for some reason has no signal on sideband.but the guys i talk to give me a 3 and an 8 on my connex 4800.but when i go on the galaxy 99 the dont move the meter but they sound the same .and they told me i give them the same signal.i turned VR 2 but it did nothing.is there anything more i can turn or ajust for the sideband signals at all?

I dont think you read my post on top i already turned vr 2 it didnt do anything for some reason.the guy that givees me an 8 i could only get his signal up to half a pound...very odd.hmm

[521 Houston]

Was it me, i'd take it to someone that has the equipment to do a proper alignment on it. Could just be a minor alignment prob.

[mudder]

yeah i guesss ill have to do that.Ill take it to a take this week to have it checked out..thanks..

[mudder]

ops i mean a tech sorry.whys there edit button here?lol

[mudder]

ok i tested here with a guy in my town tonight hes 2 miles away and he gives me his normal signal a 9.for some reason anyone over about 5 or 6 miles or so is giving me no signal.any info will help thanks!

Sounds more and more like receive is slightly out of alignment, or perhaps some bad capacitors somewhere in the receive circuit.
