Someone's pissed...did up a site to expose such works...
Found it interesting that he (Snake) does the "Poor mans Receive Mod" by changing AGC operation to being a little less aggressive - makes the noise and signals embedded in them - more noticeable - but can prove tiedious to listen to in noisy traffic commutes or if you're surrounded by neighbors with dirty equipment radio or otherwise...
- I went looking in the Newsgroups but I think the AGC mods described in the site is similar to CB Tricks and other sites that archive similar procedures to these Ancient mods....
That AGC mods' been around for years, and when you look at how people have tried to use the 2999 (no we won't go there again for now but...) to help with sensitivity - only to find the same issues around the noise level and signals you're trying to pull out - needs' a DSP and even, then you're asking - praying - for forgiveness and miracles...
So to even see this - and how the "Stryker" brand seems to get thrown in - I can see that someone owning such a radio takes more pride in knowing (now - hopefully) that trying to make a radio do more than it's purposes intended - gets you to part with money a lot faster and farther - deeper into your wallet - than what you get as a Return on your Investment.
Your "Investment" - is now converted to a pile of work that needs more help from the Factory to repair and replace and correctly apply repairs caused by shops such as this sites "expose'" tries to show.
