My Galaxy 2547 seems to be off frequency by the counter on display. If I use SSB I have clairifier cranked all the way counter clockwise and still can't zero it on frequency.
This is after it is warmed up. Environment is probably 58 degrees.
Do I have an alignment problem?

I had the same problem. I took it to my local CB shop and it works great now. Seems these radios aren't tweaked like they should be right out of the factory.

Mine was like that too. I did a VCO realignment on all modes. It still drifts even after this but not as bad. Wish I could find a way to stabilize it. Maybe a crystal change?

Sorry for late update. I adjusted my self. Galaxy walked me through over the phone. Used a tone generator and peaked the power to drive my high drive amp. Good to go now!
