Stryker SR-955HPC
Just got my new 955 from the dealer, "Opened up, Peaked & Tuned. Today is the second day I have had it.
So far I like the controls on the face, Since I am also a Ham operator I enjoy "Knobs & Buttons"
The radio has a few menu driven items but they are all Set & Forget stuff. Also, you can plug it into your computer for frequency management and such using the free to download program from Stryker.
I have the rig dash mounted into a 5' Wilson top load sitting on a 4" spring, Bandwidth seems ok considering the antenna and I will have more to add after I fiddle with it for a bit but for now, first impressions is that it seems like a well built radio with features that actually WORK and so far I am able to cull out the signal I am looking for W/O a lot of work and like I said before it seems like a well built radio.
Thats all for now,
Frenchie AKA Stewburner 57

Re: Stryker SR-955HPC
Were you getting the yellow mark in device manager?The only reason it will not work is due to driver issues it can be a pain to get it going but get the correct driver for your operating system and it should work ok.

Radiozing are the uk distributors for the stryker 955hp.I have had mine for 2 weeks now and pleased enough with it a few little things would make it better a push pull knob when in vfo mode so you can just spin it round like ham boxes rather than click click click ect when moving up and down the bands .For what ever reason i think radiozing must have turned down the power on AM as it only makes 18 watts where it can do 80 as most of the tune up reports on youtube show .Its showing 65 watts on ssb and 50 on fm but audio reports are good so for now i am happy will see how it performs in the coming months .
