Review on πŸ’ͺ Stryker 447HPC2: Heavy-Duty High Power AM Regulator with MOSFET Technology - 55 Watts, 10 Meter Radio by Tim Harrington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

i really like it πŸ‘

I've had my Stryker for about 3 years now. Sounds good at the output, the sound at the reception is also excellent. The display color options are pretty cool too. I use an Astatic mic with mine. Anyone looking to buy one should understand that you will need to take it to the store to have it customized depending on what exactly you want. I knew that when I bought it. The same should be done with Galaxy, Connex and other similar radios. But unlike those radios, this one fits in the factory radio slot in your trailer. It has everything other radios have except SSB. A factory radio is a place in your truck and you don't want to cut a bigger hole and not in a dashboard but something better than Uniden or Cobra, that's your radio. I don't think I've ever had a radio with this receiver before and used a Galaxy 88. When I first got it into the store I took it to say it rocks at 80. I saw how the guy set it up and what it takes to do is very simple. In fact you can search the internet to find out how to set it if you know what I mean. It's been a few years and I still love it. I will say that some of the newer trucks may have issues with higher horsepower. radio, that's it. My buddy had to run a separate coax cable to the antenna on the back of the bed on his KW 680 as it was interfering with his ELD computer. I didn't have this problem with my 660. The problem could be with the factory installed antennas that other devices are connected to. I'm not sure. Good price. Good radio.
