Just saw this after I posted about the 2547.
Mine has the FCC sticker on it. Also, they are tough to mod for
freeband use, NO MODS HERE! it can be done but they have the
tendency
to self destruct. They have made some changes to the unit in the
past
few years, wonder if that gained acceptance? I can get a pic
with
the
sticker on it.
I have also seen the 2547 listed as a "FCC accepted CB base" and
"Export only" It's essentially a mobile in a big case, wonder if
there are different versions floating around?

Chad what is the FCC id tag #'s on it....

.... And it has a roger beep, and, I still think it's worthless!

OOps... Wonder if he'll admit he was wrong now?
A real man would.

Yes, There is "one" radio and i stand corrected, why is it on the FCC
bust of H&Y, The radio also has adj rf power knob on front that is a no
no also. Read the disclaimer they have for the roger beep in the manual,
shut it of when not in use so you don't annoy people. Lets see what kind
of respone we get from Riley it will be interesting to hear.
I have read the about the amazement of acceptance while including adjustable
power. Dunno, it is bone stock 4/12 watts. I have heard form others that it
is a BEAR to get more channels out of, etc.
It IS a good CB RADIO though. I think it sounds great, really natural and
has excellent receive. Sideband performance is suprising for a Galaxy
although it did need a frequency allignment from the get-go and am
modulation was low (limiter slammed with a tone and only doing about 80%)
Microphone preamp is very sensitive, no NEED for a power mic but a better
sounding dynamic is in order to get the best fidelity. With the stock mic I
keep the mic gain at about 1 o'clock to keep the limiter from pumping.
They are not cheap but it has been a good, robust radio thus far.
For the record I would trade my roger beep for an unlocked clarifier in the
law books, anyday, hands down
