Product Description
LesComm Enhancements Included.

One of the prettiest radios Ranger ever made. The SS-158FB4 is a reliable 10 meter AM-FM-SSB-CW mobile radio. With 175 watts peak AM, 100 watts RMS FM-CW, 400 watts PEP SSB, it provides high performance along with features such as a 6-digit frequency counter, Mic/RF gain, and echo.

The SS-158FB4 has dual echo control and talk back switch along with a blue frequency counter, channel display and meter. Designed for easy mobile operation, an affordable price tag, the SS-158FB4 will answer your needs for SSB mobile operation.

This radio can be upgraded using 4 New HG2879's or 4 Chinese Toshiba 2SC2879 transistors in place of the DEI 2879's (Black Top) transistors these radios come with, producing 900 watts+ PEP. The radio produced almost 1000 watts peak on a 100 amp power supply at 15 volts DC using the Chinese Toshiba 2879's. I recommend a 100+ amp power supply and a 4AWG power wire upgrade to power the radio with these. You should then see it's full potential! Estimated 900 watts+ peak with the HG2879's. And 1000+ with the Chinese Toshiba's. Both the amp board and the transistors are costly and are getting very hard to find. Don't miss out! Get yours now!

Note; Ranger has discontinued manufacture of the 4 Bi-Polar amp radio's. What's in the supply line now is all there is.

Deluxe Clarifier. +5 / -5. BLUE DISPLAY. Better Dual finals. RX/NB/AGC Schottky diode upgrade. Blue/Red TX/RX LED. Receive circuit upgrade. Cuts down white noise. Continuous channels, no skips using the +10 switch. The radio has been tuned and aligned by a professional with the proper equipment. All you have to do is hook it up and start talking! Receive circuit improved to lower noise floor which lessens white noise. This improves the signal to noise ratio of the receiver.

After tune, much better than the stock RCI69FFB4! And with the lower white noise, better signal to noise ratio than all of the other stock SSB radio's! Comes with stock Mic, New Heavy Duty Power cord, and bracket. Frequency counter built in and blue color.

Tested before it ships so you know it'll work when you get it! Visit LestersCustomTrkShp on youtube!

TERMS: "Stock/No option" means just that. These receive only a general tune up or minor mods like adding a CTCSS module, or doing the frequency conversion, etc. "Stock/No option radios" are usually less than 1 week.

"Custom/Modified" examples include LesComm Enhancements, Basic Clarifier mod, Amp Switch, Hi Cut Filter, etc. just to name a few. However if you add a lot of these small upgrades it could move your order to the "Major Custom" category. Normal turn around time for "Custom/Modified radio's" 10 to 20 business days depending on model. Depending on the difficulty of your build or the builds in front of it, this time could be longer.

"Major Custom" in this case means that you have added customizing options that requires significant modification(s) to the stock radio that takes more than 20 hours to accomplish. Like complete radio tear-downs and rebuilds as a different radio. Normal turn around times for "Major Custom Build radio's" 30 to 90 business days. Depending on the difficulty of your build or the builds in front of it, this time could be longer.

Radios are built AFTER they are ordered in the order of "payment" received. Depending on the difficulty of your build or the builds in front of it, these times could be longer. Remember, if you want changes made to your radio, those changes take time.

Scanners ship within two business days.

There are NO REFUNDS for "custom radio" , "amplifier" or "power supply" orders. NO EXCEPTIONS! SO BE SURE BEFORE YOU ORDER EITHER OF THESE!

10% restocking fee on "non-customized" radio returns. .
