RCI 2995DXHP Alignment NOT!

[@jerrypolverino6025]

I watch a lot of these videos. The various accents from different parts of the country crack me up.

[@Obrien975]

Sounds like Long Island N.Y.

[@GlassRF]

Wow... Sounds like what little QC Ranger communications claimed to have in the past has gone out the window

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

Yes, the good news is I have spoken in length with them and they are trying to remedy the issues.

[@mr.stonerUDX714]

ALL radio companies have QC problem

[@joekowalsky2754]

Nice radio on the bench.

[@AEZAEZEL-187]

It looks like a good radio but could you imagine buying this and getting it alignet and peaked and tuned up? It is huge to send it to a radio specialist and send it back! Just buy the latest released President Washington it is a great 80 watts P.e.P. radio and a lot cheaper than a RCI radio!

[@brettbeougher295]

Is there a basing mod/adjustment I can't lower my dk below 40 watts or I lose a lot of top end

What's your turn around for work on a ranger 2995dx? I live in Philadelphia and it would be cheaper for me to drop off the radio in Mountainside NJ than to ship and insure it. Is that a possibility?

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

2 days normally and drop off is fine

I was wondering if they drift on ssb

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

No I haven’t seen any drift with this new one, the old ones yes

[@snugglebunnyhaven7258]

So where do people like myself that is an engineer and licensed ham in communications find the info on how to properly do the total alignment procedure on these rigs and others?

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

If you email me at [e-mail] I will be happy to provide what I have

The recievers are almost always out of whack as well not just the frequency alignment

[@mr.stonerUDX714]

all ne radios are like this

[@pressureprotn2008]

Another GOLDEN SCREWDRIVER….LOL

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

Thanks for you confidence! lol

[@jacklacey-pz7rz]

I'll never buy an RCI again

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

Why is that bad experience?

[@gjm8461]

Why would they box a new radio off frequency

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

That’s a great question, unfortunately RCI has not offered an answer to that question yet. I would guess poor quality control and it’s a shame it is a very, very nice radio once aligned.

[@mostlypostie1]

Frequency instability is a standard included feature included in all Ranger / Galaxy radios. For the money, we need to demand better. There are alternatives and I would strongly recommend you look a them, over these. Especially if you are an SSB operator. 73.

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

So far I will say I haven’t noticed frequency drift on this one yet, I was surprised! They upgraded the power supply and I believe it has improved over past models.

[@mr.stonerUDX714]

all radio companies do this

[@mostlypostie1]

@@mr.stonerUDX714 the new radios from Anytone, President (Qixiang) are rock solid. It's just the Ranger shit that is always off frequency and drifting.

[@guyrussell3605]

that you

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

Ya

[@niftyfiftycampingadventure795]

Galaxy Ranger total garbage right out of the box..

[@HAUNTED-HAM]

Agree they definitely need to be aligned properly.
