Stryker SR-497HPC 10 Meter Radio, DRX-9010 External Speaker, DRX-6560 4 Pin Noise Cancelling Dynamic Microphone, Combo
Stryker SR-497HPC 10 Meter Radio + DRX-9010 External Speaker + DRX-6560 Noise-Cancelling Microphone Combo
The Stryker SR-497HPC Audio Combo pairs Stryker's full-size 100+ watt SR-497HPC 10 meter amateur radio with two of our most-requested Driver Extreme accessories: the DRX-9010 premium external speaker and the DRX-6560 4-pin noise-cancelling dynamic microphone. It's the fastest way to fix the two things drivers complain about most in stock installs: not hearing the other station over the road and being unclear on the outgoing side.
What's in this combo
- Stryker SR-497HPC 100+ Watt 10 Meter Amateur Radio
- Driver Extreme DRX-9010 Premium External Speaker
- Driver Extreme DRX-6560 4-Pin Noise-Cancelling Dynamic Microphone
Who This Combo Is For
This bundle is built for owner-operators, long-haul drivers, and licensed amateur operators running the Stryker SR-497HPC in a working cab. If you drive a Peterbilt, Kenworth, Freightliner, Volvo, Mack, or International tractor — or you spend long hours behind the wheel of a diesel pickup with a loud cab — you already know a stock mic and an internal speaker aren't going to cut it. This combo fixes both.
License note: The Stryker SR-497HPC transmits on the 10 meter amateur band (28.000–29.700 MHz). Legal on-air transmit use requires at least an FCC Technician-class amateur radio license.
Why We Picked These Three Products
The SR-497HPC is Stryker's full-size 100+ watt PEP AM/FM 10 meter radio with the Up-Armored receiver, dual digital echo controls, and a 7-color LED faceplate — the panel real estate you want when you're reaching for controls at highway speed. The DRX-9010 is our house-brand external speaker: voice-tuned, extended cord, and a mounting bracket built for real trucks. The DRX-6560 is a 4-pin dynamic noise-cancelling mic that plugs directly into the SR-497HPC's factory 4-pin jack — no wiring changes, no adapters — and rejects the diesel, wind, and HVAC noise a stock mic passes right through.

Stryker SR-497HPC — 100+ Watt 10 Meter Amateur Radio
The SR-497HPC pushes 100+ watts PEP AM/FM in a full-size chassis (11 5/8"L × 7 7/8"W × 2 3/8"H) with a 7-color LED backlit faceplate, multi-step dimmer, dual front-mounted digital echo controls, talkback, two roger beeps, variable RF power, and the Up-Armored receiver that filters nearby-frequency interference. Automatic AWI protects the finals against a bad SWR, and the front-panel mic jack makes swapping mics tool-free. 3-year Stryker warranty. Full radio details here.
DRX-9010 External Speaker
Our Driver Extreme DRX-9010 is a wedge-shape external CB/ham speaker sized for real cabs. Voice-tuned 150 Hz–6 kHz frequency response cuts through diesel engine noise, road noise, and HVAC blowers, and the extended 10-ft cord reaches from an overhead-mounted radio down to a comfortable listening position. Included bracket makes it easy to mount to a headliner, dash, or console. If you've ever missed a critical call because a radio's tiny internal speaker was buried under road noise, this is the fix. Full speaker details here.
DRX-6560 4-Pin Noise-Cancelling Dynamic Microphone
The DRX-6560 is a dynamic element, 4-pin, noise-cancelling replacement microphone that plugs directly into the SR-497HPC's factory 4-pin jack. 9-ft cord, comfortable grip, and a mic element tuned to reject the low-frequency drone of diesel engines and HVAC blowers while passing your voice cleanly. No wiring changes required. Full mic details here.
Pro Tune & Alignment
Don't forget to add the Pro Tune & Alignment option at checkout so that your radio is professionally bench-tuned for best performance per the manufacturer's service manual.
Combo FAQ
Does the DRX-6560 mic work with the Stryker SR-497HPC?
Yes. The DRX-6560 is 4-pin wired for the same jack the SR-497HPC uses on its front panel. No adapter needed.
Is this combo cheaper than buying the pieces separately?
Yes. This bundle is priced roughly 5% below the sum of the three components at their individual retail prices.
Do I need an amateur radio license to use this radio?
Yes for transmit. The SR-497HPC operates on the 10 meter amateur band and requires at least an FCC Technician-class license for on-air transmit use. Receive-only monitoring does not require a license.
Can I use the DRX-9010 speaker with other radios later?
Yes. The DRX-9010 uses a standard 3.5 mm plug and works with virtually any CB or amateur mobile radio that has an external speaker jack.
Will this combo fit a Peterbilt / Kenworth / Freightliner cab?
The SR-497HPC is a full-size chassis (11 5/8" long), so it needs a full-length dash slot, an overhead cubby, or a bracket-mounted position — it will not drop into short factory radio cutouts. If your cab has a tight OEM cutout, look at the shorter-chassis Stryker SR-655HPC+ instead. The DRX-9010 speaker mounts nearly anywhere convenient with the included bracket.
Does the SR-497HPC have NOAA weather?
No. NOAA weather is a feature of the shorter-chassis SR-655HPC+. If NOAA weather with alert is a priority, look at the SR-655HPC+. If clean 100+ W output and the full-size faceplate matter most, the SR-497HPC is the pick.
Does the SR-497HPC have SSB?
No. The Stryker SR-497HPC is AM/FM only. If you need SSB, look at the Stryker SR-955HPC+.
What's included in the box?
All three products in their original packaging: the SR-497HPC radio (with factory 4-pin mic, power cord, mounting bracket, hardware), the DRX-9010 external speaker with cord and bracket, and the DRX-6560 microphone.
Do you offer Pro Tune on the SR-497HPC?
Yes — as an optional $50 add-on at checkout. It's not automatically included in this combo.
How is this different from the SR-655HPC+ audio combo?
Same accessories (DRX-9010 + DRX-6560), different radio. The SR-497HPC is full-size chassis (11 5/8") with dual digital echo controls and a larger faceplate; the SR-655HPC+ is short chassis (9.25") built to fit factory truck cutouts and adds NOAA weather. Both are 100W PEP AM/FM. Pick the 497 for maximum panel controls, pick the 655+ for a tight OEM fit and NOAA.
Should I add the antenna install combo too?
If you also need an antenna system, look at the SR-497HPC Antenna Install Combo — SR-A10 antenna + DRX-3402 heavy-duty mirror mount + DRX-1518 18-foot premium coax. Some customers order both bundles for a complete build.
What's the warranty?
The Stryker SR-497HPC carries a 3-year manufacturer warranty from Stryker. The Driver Extreme DRX-9010 and DRX-6560 carry our standard Driver Extreme accessory warranty.
