Has anyone used the sigma 5/8 I have been talking on it my whole life, does any one like it anyone have tips about it ? i would appreciate tips that i can follow.:thumbup1:
 

just in case you go looking for one dont get confused by the false advertising at G.I.Joes .... their sigma alpha 5/8 is just another maco copy like the workman 58 . i called the about 1 1/2 years ago asking about it and the guy said it uses a wire to tap the ring for tuning , he also said the 24 foot height spec is a miss print that its a few feet shorter .

    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
