I was told I could run the galaxy 94hp on posts in semi truck

I'm a truck driver & I was told I could install the galaxy 94HP to the truck posts inside instead of connecting the cb wires directly to truck battery..is this true?

The Binding Posts as they are actually known are for hooking up Radios and such and have been a common feature of most truck manufactures for well over 20 years they are for convenience and to help keep down on wiring problems due to folks making poor connections to the trucks wiring harness and Yes they are sufficient to run that radio as most will support up to 500 watt amps.

I'm not sure what "truck posts" are, as I don't drive a semi, but do know quite a bit about CB Radios, etc.

+ Are these truck posts 12-Volt? If not, then no.
+ Are they capable of VERY high current (amps) draw? The HP version will be drawing an incredibly high amount of power (25-amps) at maximum watt output.
+ I'd recommend running to the battery, as this would not only be the safest method, but would also provide for the quietest (i.e. less interference) operation.

Why did my mosfets blow in my galaxy dx 94hp. The swr meter on the radio was showing a good reading?

The integrated SWR meter is probably fairly accurate and decent gear should be able to tolerate a slightly high reflected wave without collapsing in sparks and smoke.

I am not an expert on such things but there are a few possible reasons why this disaster happened. It is possible the equipment wasn't designed very well or didn't use top quality components or was designed for a fairly short duty cycle or was intolerant to a high ambient temperature or a combination of all of these things. If the unit was used beyond the duty cycle and poorly positioned in a higher than recommended ambient temperature it wouldn't be surprising that one device might fail and the others would probably follow like falling dominoes.

A sustained overload is another possible reason for failure. If the devices were badly chosen so they had to perform close to their limitations they will be stressed and vulnerable to overload.

A power supply problem is also a possibility.

It is also worth noting some semiconductor devices or the entire circuit can suffer thermal runaway and self-destruct.

That is a lot to think about. Mostly domestic (non-professional) equipment is built down to a price and as a result has a low duty cycle and less tolerance to high ambient temperatures - the sort of temperatures found in a car during the summer or that can build when a unit is placed on an indoor shelf even with the recommended airspace...

How to set SWR on Galaxy DX 94HP

first of all you need a manual that will tell you everything you need to know. Secondly , you don't have to set a variable in order to set the SWR . Your antenna should have a set screw to loosen when you adjust it.

I have Vista OS on my laptop & have never been able to get automatic updates to work. I have had nothing but problems with this OS & want to instal Win 7 but I am told I can't do that until I see...

Don't worry about "compatibility" issues. You can pretty much force Win 7 onto just about any laptop.

What you need to do is backup your files (that is if you have any you want saved)

You need to do a CLEAN install, not the UPGRADE when you boot from the Windows 7 cd.

Delete ALL of the partitions...then hit NEXT.

When it's done installing, run the updates and if you're missing any drivers after the updates post back the model of your laptop / desktop and we'll help you patch the missing ones.

Best of luck!

Since the new one is not marked, you can connect the black on either side of the switch.
