    Yaesu FRG7700: Any good?

    There is a switch on the back labeled DX / Loc it becomes dirty at times and makes the FRG 7700 appear deaf. Needs sprayed with contact cleaner from time to time. Good Radio

    Rci-2950dx

    Hi, I had just got a new RCI 2950DX blackface model and when doing the E-chip conversion I noticed a small board about the size of a dime or nickel that was very loose it was just glued to a rubber piece. I believe it goes to the mic connection. Anyway it is not stuck on there very well at all...

    Stryker 955 AGC Timing Circuit

    Stryker 955 AGC Timing Circuit

    I have gotten another 955 a few days ago which was the same as the other one with the distorted ssb. I tried a 100uf capacitor which seems to be the standard that people use on other radios for agc it didn't really seem to do anything at least to my ears. On a whim I stopped by Radio...

    Stryker 955 AGC Timing Circuit

    Well here is the agc circuit that Shawn sent me from Stryker if anyone wants to play with it? I am not sure if the timing will help with the overload though. But there it is - The circuit is in the attached file Report back your findings if you work on it.

    Stryker 955 AGC mod..Anyone?

    I don't see how it could be missed? I have seen the Anytone 5555s having the same problem and someone came up with a mod for it..Have also seen the latest Anytone 5555 Version 6 with the problem corrected. I have seen a video of the New Lincoln 2 up on you tube and I got to say it doesn't...

    Stryker 955 AGC mod..Anyone?

    Stryker 955 AGC mod Anyone know of a mod to do to the Stryker 955. It suffers the same problem as the early versions of the Anytone 5555 on SSB as I believe the agc is too fast and slowing it down may fix the strong signal overload problem. I would love to be able to fix this. If anyone has...
