I can probably do this better - I sort of haphazardly put this together.

More information please! I would LOVE to be able to monitor the HP PSU I have with a TFT display. Being able to have hot-swap capability would be a bonus, too!
Brother that explains so much. I've only been in audio repair for about four years. (Self taught and UA-cam). Great video. Thank you.
excellent work really impressive. The Hermes is an mamazing radio and very under estimated by a lot of people.
Yes there has been a CB repeater. We had a CB FM repeater operating for several years in the early 1980s. It was a split site repeater with several inputs... 40 up or 40 down from Ch 27 where the output was. The transmitter was on a hill, Palos Verdes peninsula and the repeater covered all of the Los Angeles and Orange County area and also into San Fernando Valley, Riverside and San Bernadino Counties. Was also heard and used from San Diego a few times. I still have the bare bones of the repeater. The receivers and transmitter sites were linked on 49 Mhz with Pace Land Mobile LO VHF radios. The repeater had a fairly large group of members/users... the group was called "The Pirate Radio Group". The whole think was cooked up by an Engineer and Ham named Laszlo Hirsch WA6SWG who was a good friend of mine. The repeater was taken down after a visit from the FCC and Laszlo fought the fines that the FCC attempted to levy for years. Single site 10 or 11M repeaters are difficult because the cavities for the necessary duplexer are huge. My current 10M repeater uses Kenwood commercial radios and is split site. Did you ever finish this project shown in the video?
Yer momma is being sold on ebay 😂
Do you still have the expansion board for the Uniden 980? I can't find them anywhere except for a few people wanting to rip people off for old units. I have 980 with a bad LCD and would love to get it running with expansion.
I sold my home in New York and I move down to Easley South Carolina you’re about an hour away from me. Great, I’ll pay you to pick your brain. Ha ha ha😂
How does it work in the attic?
Thanx for the review, put a EBay bid on this radio, am excited
I really would like extra chanels as im also an advanced ham
I did my buddies radio tonight and it would not power on option. I just hit the band switch and 11m was there. it had the 6 thru holes with just solder in them. I hope I jumped it properly....it works fine. I did top and bottom on the left topside
When they name call it proves they lost the argument 😂
did the same and it doesn't work on my radio, can't get it to show on the display either way
hi i have a problem with stryker sr-955 hpc did as you show do you have an email so i can send you photo Claus
Very Nice!
🍿👋
I'm impressed Mark! Very nicely done. I shared this video with Homer since he has a Hermes as well.
Long time HL2 user here. Nice work! Would you share your modified software? (PiHPSDR)? I had not seen a Windows fork before either. Very cool stuff.
It's GPL.. so yeah. I just need to put it on github. if you drop me an email i can send you a link when I get that sorted. It's built in the msys environment on Windows. The thing that I want to try to tackle at some point is the actual resizing part. it's all hardcoded sizing and in GTK4 they took a lot of that window position functionality out to leave it to the window manager.
@@Mark19960 Thanks Mark, That would be great. I have had some experience with the resizing issue on a Pi build of this. I did find a fork that allowed dynamic resizing at one point. But I am going a back a year or two now...
I done mine same way an didn't work
With all the empty space inside, you would think Stryker would make these radios smaller
Common argument, but doesn't actually make sense in reality. that means new tooling... and more expense.
Buen vídeo una consulta puedo colocar la tarjeta de circuito del 148gtl al 2000gtl
an someone help. I had to pull the front off and two yellow wires came off, one is VR1 and I this it goes to the adjustment pot, the other to the meter but not 100% sure. Can someone take a picture?
you could also use a double duo schottky diode ready for both final rf transistors. like cdn-reichelt.de/documents/datenblatt/A100/MBR1545CT_MBR1560CT_CDIL.pdf, MBR 1545CT Dual Schottky diode, common cathode, 45V, 15A, TO-220AB
Hello, i added the jumper with no luck. any suggestions?
So did it get done or not
where could I get tue document for the 955 conversion from 10 meter to 11 meter
When covid was still going strong, i took my 2nd stimulus and bought a rigexpert AA-600 and a stryker V1. At the time it was the only one available pre-modified on ebay. I wish i would have took the time to get a later model and mod it myself. I wish more people in this hobby would share knowledge and teach like you. I'm sure this info will help in the future, thanks for helping us out.
Appreciate that mate. The problem with teaching is that if I say something I have 10 clowns that want to go forum shop to find someone that says its wrong, for some minor reason. I wrote something up one day and the ENTIRE ONE PARAGRAPH ANSWER was said to be wrong. Why? because i flipped a couple of characters in a word - common misspelling mistake. So it was "all wrong" I am getting too old and too grumpy for armchair engineers :)
@@Mark19960 I know what you mean. To many people these days would rather act like they know everything than be humble.
By chance can you share how to do 447 conversion
Can't you just jump out the last two pads with a solder bridge? The 1st two are already connected.
I have added the wire to my radio (955) but when I power on the radio holding the func and color keys I do NOT get the “ham mode” It just goes to the standard screen. I do however get 11 meter now. Any ideas why my radio is different?
Hi mark .have this problem .could you please send me a copy of the new file.please thankyou
third production run ! .. Meaning version 3 Radio's ? Thanks
The tta 1943 would it be a good replacement for 2sb754?
👍👍👍👍👍👍

Ok I’m new here, what exactly is he doing here
Looks like a clone to the Icom AT-130.
*Can a Stryker SR-955h be Modified just a Stryker SR-655 can?* *Is there a Advantage one Vs the Other?!?*
hello mark, can i send you my 980 to have all that done to mine?
Awsome
All that wasted empty space.. I always felt like they should of made the radio a bit smaller.
and re-tool everything? invoke the package engineers again? why? What they did actually makes sense from a manufacturing perspective.
@@Mark19960 Really? you care about the manufacturer or the consumer? IMO it's still a waste of space, bruh! 🤷♂
@@vicrod74 I see both sides. I work with both sides. It might be a "waste of space" but the practical reasons remain.. and ultimately the decision to keep things as they are was the most sensible one.
