I have a stryker radio. I am having a problem tha has me baffled to say the least. When I key up it flashes red, others can tell I have keyed up but no voice on the other end. This only happens in AM Mode when I switch to FM everything is fine. I have tried switching mics from a astatic to a road king no help, any ideas or suggestion |

If it is flashing red you have SWR issues |

When you say "it flashes red", do you mean that it turns red on key-up and stays red until you unkey? Or do you mean that when you key up, it flashes red-blue-red-blue, etc? The former is normal, the latter means that you have a high SWR. |
