Galaxy DX 959B CB Radio — Discontinued 2026

The Galaxy DX 959B was the deluxe blue-LED variant of Galaxy's DX 959 AM/SSB CB radio line — a full-size single sideband CB with a dimmable blue LED display and a blue-backlit StarLite faceplate that was widely used by over-the-road truckers running sideband. The Galaxy CB radio lineup, including the DX 959B, has been discontinued from current production in 2026, and any remaining inventory of this listing reflects final closeout stock.

If you're shopping for a new AM/SSB mobile CB in the same class as the DX 959B, the current-production replacement is the Texas Ranger TRE Top One AM/SSB CB Radio. It matches the DX 959B on every spec that mattered to Galaxy 959 buyers — 40-channel AM/USB/LSB coverage, PLL synthesis, FCC-legal 4W AM / 12W PEP SSB output, front-panel SWR/modulation/power meter, variable RF power output, variable talkback, NB/ANL — and adds a 7-color touch-select faceplate (broader than the DX 959B's fixed blue lighting), variable bass/treble receive tone control, and Ranger USA's current factory warranty.
