I asked the tech point of view, now i am curious of what everybody else thinks of these two radios. What radio is better, or in this case is there a better radio than these. Looking for clean modulation, very clear, very loud, and good ssb operation. |

The Ranger 6900 25 probably has better stability on SSB than the Galaxy. |

Galaxy is overrated,overpriced to say the least,go with the ranger. |

Never owned a 6900 but i do have a 99v.Its really loud and clear on am but is horrible for sideband-drifts all over the place. |

Tip: Galaxy drifts no more than the 6900. |

Hmmm i had a galaxy 88 HL that i used on SSB and after about 15 minutes of warmup it was fairly stable. I also had a galaxy saturn that i got from a local guy NIB for 325.00 and it was solid as a rock on AM and SSB(after the usual 15 minute warmup) because it was new and never jockeyed with on the insides... |

I heard or read somewhere cant remember, but you cannot get the Ranger radios to open up "if you will", like you can a Galaxy!!!...... Any ideas anybody? |

99 is great on am not on ssb the ranger is great on both but the 99 does not have the hash noise on rx like ranger think about what mode u talk the most am or ssb and go for there |
