its called a bs modification to the radio.
get it repaired at a real shop even if you have to mail it out.

pop the top cover and look at where the board is mounted in the center.
look to the bottom right where the aluminum leg screws into the board.
up about 1/8 inch and to the left about 1"
IS TR32 MISSING?

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
