However I did notice right away that there was no USB programming cable or software included with the radio.

The radio came with a very basic-looking microphone, mounting bracket and hardware, power cord, and a nicely printed manual. The Stryker didn’t yield any surprises as I unboxed the radio. The goal (at least as I had heard it) was to create a radio that could perform in all modes and offer the frequency stability that the die hard SSB crowd demanded. The other complaint has been that often SSB export radios performed well on AM but not SSB or vice versa. The Magnum 257, Optima, and RCI 29xx series have been some of the notable exceptions. One of the biggest complaints about SSB export radios over the years has been issues with frequency drift during SSB operation. Stryker spent a long time working with the factory to develop this radio and the goal was to create a SSB radio that would retain all of the positive aspects of their previous AM radios while offering SSB stability. This radio has been a long time in the making and the first rumors we heard of the radio started over two years ago. The Stryker SR-955HP is a brand new radio released in May 2012.

I run these microphones they sound the best. Cost £49.99 and eBay item: 152440325476 and the Plus has all the options from before plus it doesn’t need any battery as takes the power from the radio itself. Just sounds nice whether on a Magnum or an Icom it’s a rich sound. The standard version has the electret changed, updates to how Echo sounds, improved modulation and a wider studio sound I’d say. I guess we will call them the standard modified and the Plus modified versions. Thankfully you can now buy them in the U.K. Many emailed me during the months about the modified Densei microphones from our friends in Łodz Poland.
