2/23/2023 0 Comments Magnum s9 cb radio manualI personally don’t suggest using power microphones with the S-9 in any version. The radio comes with a stock 4-pin microphone which we found adequate and clear but we ditched it in favor of a SRA-158 which yielded better on-air reports. While the radio may be heavy, its size is still very reasonable and the actual radio measurements are almost identical to a regular S-9 with the exception of the height which is increased by the heat sink. The radio comes with a heavy duty mounting bracket and I’d suggest making sure that where ever you decide to mount it that you use some good strong screws/bolts to secure the bracket. The heat sink on the SX-175 is one of the most substantial pieces of metal you’ll see on any radio and it has some heft to it. When unpacking the box the first thing you’ll notice about this radio is that it’s heavy. The radio I reviewed also had a newer style of amplifier circuit in the SX-175 which used 2 x 7530ERF transistors. This radio is essentially a Magnum S-9 but the bottom cover (and speaker) have been replaced with the SX-175 amplifier system and heat sink. Since the Magnum S-9 has always been a favorite of mine I was interested to see how I would like it paired with the attached SX-175 amplifier system. The Magnum S-9 175 is the latest big radio to visit our shack. Magnum S-9 175 10 Meter Export AM / FM / SSB Review
