    like what, tuning and peaking it..??

    there is still all those others things i mentioned.

    to me, it's a waste of money to buy more that a basic cb radio.

    my money feels better in my wallet, then at the store counter.

    Yes, because some people probably aren't familiar with export radios. When they buy one at a cb shop, the tech/salesman will inform them that they can do the conversion and so called tune up for x amount of dollars. After all, that's how they make their living.

    You can hardly blame the product for that. With almost any product you can name, some people do zero research and end up paying more than needed

    Thats an older radio...If a person wants a stryker i would go with a 955/655..May not have the advertised same power but has better ears,more amour inside..
