Alpha 10 Max AM-1000 10 Meter Export CB Radio Overview by CBRadiomagazine.com

[@johnalex1356]

I installed the Stryker SR-955HP in my van and have been using it for about a year now. I use a sr-5k magnet mount antenna and I talk to my local hams on 10 meters SSB all day when on the road at work. This radio is the absolute best import radio you can buy.

[@unclequack5445]

Right but for the cost the President Richard is hard to beat the Dick is a full band 10 meter and can be expanded to 27 mhz loaded with features seen on high $ "Export" jobs at a better $ Ive heard Stryker rigs are very nice as well.

Bonjour j'en ai un à ,vendre pour cause double emploi je la laisse à 150 €

[@markwilliams8702]

I use a midland special edition mike. No wiring needed, worked out of the box. Lovely radio, well worth the money. Use it regularly and comes close on performance with my alinco 135. Great video too.

[@Sky1]

RF Rain! I need that feature!

[@terrandroid]

i always had a galaxy pluto, then it broke. i was very sad about it, now i want this one. what is a good antenna for it to use

[@acestudioscouk-Ace-G0ACE]

Thanks for this video. Does it have a CTCSS function. As it is programmable to split frequencies on 10m, CTCSS would mean you could use the rig on 10m repeaters. I didn't see it mentioned in the video but may have missed it.

[@ottronics6457]

I know their is no VFO but can these be used on ten meter ham as a licensed ham .... ????

[@VATrucker23836]

I run a Road King 56 mic on my Quad5 which is the same as the Alpha and it has no issues.

[@michaeldeerwester3178]

Great to hear. I have been the Stryker radio for several weeks in my vehicle and have been very impressed with the functionality and quality of the radio.

[@RallySportsCBShop]

I have one sitting in here on my shelves bran new never been used. Super radio to find. Very wide spread options on this radio.

[@poikaa3]

Not to distract from your feature of the Alpha Max, but.... I see the display of the Pro640 has lost some of the segments, a common problem with several of the Pro series by Uniden. I have remedied by removing the display and actually sawing the double seven segments from the display module. Leaving the S meter intact, I wired a new double seven segment display and it worked fine. I always kept my bright / dim button on dim to keep the current down. Nice to see these old rigs working! 73!

You mention the CW and Ext Sp jacks. I see the radio has a PA function, but no PA SP jack?

[@jeffreylucas3421]

I like it, So very much similar to Delta Force/ Omega Force radios that have been unavailable for some time.

[@jeffreylucas3421]

How can I nicely its almost an identical rip off of the American Delta force radio?

[@billa1870]

Very nice job on the video. As a ham of many years, I would like to know where I can purchase one. I like the PC programming option and the split frequency feature. I called Copper and Bells and they don't have it. Any suggestions as to where I can order one..

[@kellingc]

CW stand for Continuous Wave. What it does is produce a single tone with the circuit interrupted by the CW key. Tone is produced when you press the key, and turned off when you let go of the key. This is what is used to transmit mores code. For example, the letter E is a short tone - a dot (or dit) . where as a T is 3 times as long - a dash (or dah) - Combinations of dots and dashes let you do the whole alphabet, numbers, and punctuation.

[@danielellis4829]

i ve got the anytone at 5555 v6 its gave me alot of problems, kicking out in the middle of my transmission either swr kickout or 12volt kickout but it did not come with programing cable but the only time it gives me problems is when i m trying to run a linear on ssb, the rest of the time this radio is flawless and always on freq. which alot of other radios that have been around for yrs can not do and they cost twice as much so i will get my programing cable and go inside and change some settings and get her figured out and i would appreciate any input thankyou 73s unit 27 gobles,mi.

[@danielellis4829]

@Tony Tony THANKS TONY WE ARE GOOD.

[@bandit269u]

How low will this thing go 12 meter?

[@dalemyers9265]

being a ham. do i see the clarifier capable of being used as a split for 10 meter repeater use. i know i would have to add a tone board to it. i think one tone board maker has one with a rotary switch to select more than just one selected programed tone.

[@derekcharleslovell]

thank you

[@fordbroncodave]

Thats alot of info to take in all at once! I did however comprise a few questions to ask. is there talk back and if soo, how is it adjustable or turned on/off? are you going to post audio of the roger beep tone and length? when and where will these radios be for sale? how much are these? any warranty information? what kind of quality is the echo? what kind of quality is the knobs on the radio? have you gone crazy after looking at that terrible misspelling?

[@eliaszinaassef376]

because it comes written rf rain, I have an anytone at-5555 that also comes like this (rf rain). Do you know? thank you. instead of rf gain. I'm from Brazil and I do not understand English.

[@m0ogy]

What a top radio, a very nice review

[@MikeReed]

Sweet radio, and thank God it has SSB!

[@kellingc]

Some keys look like a telegraph key, and indeed are designed after them. These are known as "straight" keys. There are types that have 2 tabs side-by-side, where the left tab will produce a series of dahs, and the right tab will produce a series of dits. With a little practice, you can become proficient enough to time it correctly to send accurate code by hitting the correct tab at the correct time. This type of keys needs a component called a "keyer" which I don't think these radios have.

[@richg.2579]

That is one cool radio

[@stevefox3763]

thats a intek hr 5500! i have one and it goes from 25.000-30.500mhz a very simple mod unlocks it

As a licensed radio amateur, this is a interesting 10mtr set. We can buy this transceiver now in the Netherlands. Can you tell me how good the receiver in practise is?

The point about pin4 having a voltage on it. Do you know if that is the same as the anytone at 5555? I can find no mention of it, in the instruction manual. 73 de G7SWW Blue flash. Great video by the way.

I know this is an old video but I watched it for reference before purchasing an Anytone AT-5555v6. When doing the conversion to 11 meters is there any realignment that will need to be done since there is no wire clipping or soldering to be done?

[@jeffreygiven7388]

What radio would you recommend for a new ham who can only use a small portions of the 10 meter band. 28.300- 23.599?

[@g0fvt]

This radio is more of an export CB than a ham rig, I have a later one (badged as an Anytone 5555). It lacks facilities like CW filters and IF shift and width controls etc. Quite well made and programmable via a PC. For ham use you might be better off spending more on a used HF rig.

You can use this one, it is s cheap...

There are 10 meter radios that can transmit on 11 out of the box. But as far as I know most of them need to be modified to operate on 11. By the way, doing that mod is illegal. The only radios you can legally use on 11 meters in the US are FCC approved CB's. Also, as you may already know, operating on 10 meters is illegal without an amateur (ham) radio license.
