    Stryker SR-89MC

    I've got a Stryker SR-89MC in my 2012 Jeep Wrangler. I got it mainly because of the lack of mounting options for a radio. One of the things I like about the Stryker is all of the controls on the hand held microphone are fairly easy to use while driving. The power output is great for a small...

    The RM KL 203-P amp is a very nice little linear amp for the money. I've bought 2 of them and so far they have performed flawlessly for the past few months.

    AM/SSB Base - what's a good entry level unit?

    A quality basic 40 channel base radio such as a Cobra 2000 and a good all aluminum antenna such as a Siro is a good combination. The real trick is the get your antenna up about 36 ft. and keep the SWR's as low as possible. That is, unless you had rather have a multi-banded base radio. I've...

    The most important things I learned about CB Radio

    Something I learn in the mid 70's when I first got interested in CB radios is, leave the stinking radios along. Do not modifiy. They will work well enough to tall to all of your friends if you have a good antenna in the right location and you keep the SWR's as low as possible. A good tune-up now...

    Step right up and get this classic!
