DX2547 - One Of The Last Base Radios Available! This one has it all. AM & SSB modes, Built-In SWR meter. Can be operated on 12 volts mobile power with optional power cord.

The Galaxy DX-2547 was updated in the fall of 2024 and now has a metal arm that can out to prop the radio up. Previously they used plastic legs that weren't as durable.

Here it is! Compact yet full featured, the Galaxy DX 2547 CB base station radio comes pre-equipped with sideband and skip-shooting features with a bonus of being dual purpose as either an indoor Base Station CB or as a regular mobile radio.

Imagine using the DX2547 in your vehicle as a regular full-featured mobile CB complete with features like instant emergency channel 9 and a PA speaker jack, then when you get to your destination plug it into your home AC outlet and base antenna and enjoy the full-featured benefits of a standard base radio.

Small enough to act as a mobile, powerful and featured enough to be an excellent base. This is an enthusiasts dream radio!

Doesnt work for longer than 2 weeks!
Ordered unit peaked and tuned and recieved it quickly, set it up with A99 base antenna with ground plane and it wouldn't turn on. Walcott had me return it to them free of charge and repaired it and sent it back free of charge. (Walcott is great!!!) Got it set up and worked for 2 weeks. Now doing the same thing. Unit wont turn on. It cycles on/off every second or so when you press the power button. Waiting to hear back from Walcott Radio... I have to say so far I am not impressed with the radio. I am impressed with Walcott Radio. Hopefully we can get this resolved.

This is a awesome radio, but I am not an expert on all the radios out there. I just know this radio works for me. Once again Walcott has done a perfect job, everything came as orderd and showed up a day early. I got the peak and tune and the Antron 99 antenna. I just have the antenna hooked up to the cloths line for now untill i get the stuff i need for the chimny. There was no need to adjust the SWR it was 1.4 on channel 1 and all the way down 1.0 on 40, I am not going to mess with it. A very nice radio and antenna, I was talking skip right away. It will be better once the antenna is on the roof. The large Channel knob is nice feels good going thru the channels.

Nice Looking, Powerful, Lots of featuresnot enough time to talk on it!I just received my new Galaxy Base station the other day from WalCott CB and I have to tell you that I am just so pleased! I haven't used a CB since I was around 18 and I am now 38 but man, This thing made me feel like I never left the band.

I rent an apartment so I also bought the indoor base antenna and even with an indoor antenna this this rocks !

I also got the "peak and tune" which was also WELL worth the money!

I wish there was more base stations on the market but this ohe is cool for sure.

The one thing I did notice is that when I used the mini base indoor antenna, I need to turn the RF power all the way down because the radio is so strong and powerful.

I am actually on Walcotts website right now to by myself a nice A99 base antenna because I just have to know that this base station kicks but so much, I mean I am amazed how far and awesome this radio is with this small antenna,....I can just imagine if I get that A99 :)

Anyhow - If your looking for a new base radio, This thing is 10000% worth the money.

It has an awesome meter too that does SWR, Power and MOD , RF. NB, Its just packed with features and also can run on 12v! WHoot, thats right when I go mobile I can take my sweet rig!

Thanks for reading, I am on the side :)

I ordered this with peak/tune and it walks and talks! I even hooked it up in my van for awhile to see how it faired and it actually works better there than my regular mobile unit. I also ordered it with the Astatic D104-M6B and had to take that off and use the stock mic as it had more than enough modulation without the Astatic so I used the D104-M6B on my regular mobile unit.
