GALAXY DX2517 10 METER BASE TRANSCEIVER
The DX2517 10 meter base station radio was among the first to use the new second generation main board. The new board offered this unit unparalleled frequency stability and sensitivity on both AM and SSB making the DX2517 an immediate success. It has all the features you would expect like oversized meters, 5 digit frequency counter and 25 watts of SSB power. As good as any model in its price range an excellent radio for people on a budget or just starting in amateur radio.
