Finding a good setup

good choices Walcott have Stryker a 955 at $379 :00 am fm SSB 90 watts after tuned and peaked

 

High voltage have driver Appreciation days as well they have a Facebook page I’m not sure about Walcott radio

 

Start with the antenna first, get an older dependable cobra or uniden that has a proper alignment, use that to get the antenna setup right then look around.

I would not get a radio that has been "tuned", they can work just as well right out of the box,

 

I wouldn't let Walcott inside your radio,there's been members here that have had bad experiences.

Maybe somebody can chime in,and give you a good shop.

I know Rick out at the ta in Gary does good work.

 

I didn’t say 2. I just said predator

 

Do a search on here about the strykers. They’ve been have issues.

he is currently shut down due to the coronavirus epedemic

 

Why would you want to run an Amp beside the 955 output power is 80 /90 watts SSB I presume similar watts on Am
