I change my base station setup a lot, but I plan on keeping it like this for the forseeable future (a week or two at least).

My base station. Nothing special. Realistic TRC-457 transceiver. Monitor box on top of radio controls fan in radio, and the EQ and DSP unit on the right. Transel wattmeter, Black Cat counter, external speakers, Altec-Lansing phones, Stock Realistic handmike, and voltage monitoring meters complete the setup. Not shown is the Digital recorder I use for watergates. I removed the mic mixer and noise toys I had connected 'cause I never used them.

    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
