Galaxy 88

Post by Hawkeye »

My wife picked up a Galaxy 88HL at a hamfest years ago. The frequency range for this radio is 25.165Mhz to 28.755Mhz. 8 bands. Double the amount of channels even with the uppers & lowers on my Cobra 2000GTL. I know this is well above and below 11 meter radio. Even into 10 meter. I like the fact of having all those channels. Easier to find solitude if I want to carry on a chat with a friend when the skip is rollin in heavy.
Long story short, I am looking for another radio with comparable channels, doesnt have to be another Galaxy, but I sure do like em. But I dont seem to find any more radios with close to this many channels AND have 11 meter also. Do they make em this way anymore? Or will I have to settle for 40 channels plus the uppers & lowers?
Am I looking for an export radio?
