    I am hopping to find one for about 170.00 shipped. I don't have a stryker any more. The only radio I got no one would want. LOL I am running an old Philli cobra 25 with a rk56 mic. It does get out a known 6 miles on flat ground with my trusty mad mount wilson 1000. I was very shocker to find this out. The guy on the other side had a stryker 497 which wasn't to my surprise. My stryker 447 I had was the best recieving radio I have ever had. I am hopping the 93T is cose to as good.

    I got one in the closet. Very near new, mint condition. 90 watts. I got the box it came in, all papers, mounting bracket (never used) mic ( also never used ) plus the receipt from purchase. I paid over $400, it was too large for the cubby hole in my tractor so after a couple-three days I went back to my old radio. I guess its about 4 years old now. PM if interested.

    I'm sure it would be easy enough to change finals and get 90 and more though.

    I plan to buy it here soon and I don't think I will change a thing. I am surprised its not putting out the watts that custom cb repair guy is geting form his 959 that has the 2290 finals swapped in. I am not too worried about power anymore. I mostly want a nice clean radio that will talk around 10 miles on AM. Any more then that I just don't see the purpose of needing to talk any further on the road. Plus its not like you will be able to talk to gobs of people. Your avarage cb in a truck only talks about 3-5 miles it seems.

    The difference between 50 watts and 90 watts, as perceived at a receiver, is less than half an S-unit, and nobody will ever hear the difference.
    I like to tune radios for 100% modulation and 80-90% of their rated output, and they seem to last forever; plus they'll forgive a greater degree of antenna system failure if something goes wrong on the road..
