I don't know if it was a mistake but I got that same exact radio that version. I bought it about 9 months ago and the people who sold it to me did not realize it was a new version. What I noticed at first with mine was the 12 different lights. And also the FM it seems like it transmits a little wider than the previous model. But anyway yes you're right I'd rather have that Striker over the 955 or the 655 ... also if you hold in the light button and key up the microphone at the same time you can also change the transmit light in the meter to a different color as well

How many watts can u push with that 4 pill? If somebody were to do the 11 meter conversion, would the person need to adjust all the internals or can u just check the swr again on a frequency? Asking for a friend

I bought a Connex 3400hp over the Stryker, because it was my experience that the Stryker doesn't hold up to the vibrations of a big truck pounding the highway at speed. The solder joints break in short order. Great sounding radio though ✌️

I bought a 497 awhile back and moved the jumper to get the CB. I have a good swr . my question is after the conversion does it still receive on the other bands and is anything else required after the conversion? As of yet I haven't received the first voice from it but my area is slightly remote.

Are these radios legal on CB (11 meters) or do I need to get a Ham license to use this? Someone told me that radios used on CB must be FCC certified as such and are limited to 4 watts.

I bought a 1/4 cm400 from Carl built directly from day one I have had nothing but pure trouble with it it's a base model I sent it back the first time because it had troubles yes I do admit the first time was my fault but the second time was not my fault instead of putting all new transistors in their he replaced the two that went bad which caused an imbalance in the Box when I contacted him on the phone he basically said my box is not no longer under warranty and basically said the parts in that box such as the transistors are not under warranty which I already knew that from the get-go he wanted me to send it back up there to him for him to fix it I decided not to because of the simple fact I would have to pay for shipping I will admit the first time he did pay for shipping both ways not trying to talk bad about the gentleman but I'm just saying for the amount of money that I spent which is $1,440 and some change was the initial investment then I had to buy two more transistors at 126 so yeah basically I'm done with that situation I will never do business with this man again I'm sorry to say but I have never had a problem like this before with any amplifier builder in my life basically the bottom line is is I'm not happy with this man's products but oh well you live and you learn I have another technician taking care of it at this moment hopefully I will have it back soon and be using it and will not have any more trouble with it
@Rooster_Radio3 ай бұрын
First issue I've ever heard from a carl built amp. Outside of having one come in with a defective fan, there's been zero issues here. I've purchased and sold everything from a single 2879 amp, up to a 24 pill and will soon be getting a 32 for my own suburban. I've probably spent close to 6 figures with him. And I'm not trying to discredit what you're saying, but same as with me, I'm sure if you look hard enough someone will Express frustration because I didn't warranty something. He did pay shipping both ways the first time which is probably more than what I would've done. I get you're frustrated, but at the end of the day 4 transistors is small beans. I blew a $4500 transformer within 8 hours of using it. Didn't blame the builder, didn't ask for a refund, as a matter of fact he's a very good friend of mine
