OK, my first Stryker to touch, feel, and repair...

It was dead. would not power up. Did a quick internet
search to save time. found that some of these radios had a
burned-up board trace. others had a bad on/off switch.

I quickly found the on/off switch to be bad. So I soldered a piece
of wire on the bottom of the board to make it be on all the time.

it also had a burned up circuit board trace, from the MIC input ground trace.
It was repaired but very sloppy. three of the connectors have some
melted plastic on them from the sloppy and shakey hands of
whoever did that soldering. I neatened it up with a nice solder blob
on the bottom of the board to ground in the proper place.

no telling how that ground path trace got burned up, in the MIC
input circuit on the main board. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:


radio works. set to 25 watts carrier, good modulation. :):)

this radio does not match the diagram on CB tricks X-9821R23

this radio has "240222-MAIN-R2" and "240708" on the board.
the RF output is on the main board, with 4 TO-220 size devices,
covered up by a fan.

So just trying to get the proper schematic for my collection.
I am sure I will be seeing this radio again. ;););)
