The rf gain cuts the receive even more. Fm has loud static. Ssb receive is very low as well.
Doesn't yeticom still frequent the forums? Maybe I'll get a response
Filter is off, but whether it's on or off the receive is the same.
I was thinking front end transistor, just not familiar with this particular board. Was having trouble finding any service information or schematics.
Yes, I've checked the RF Gain knob. It's almost like the radio is halfway squelched. You'll hear zero static and then when someone talks they are way down in the bottom of the receiver.
For instance, I just put the radio back into the car after having it out on the bench. I got a radio check...
Hi All,
I was finally able to get my hands on a Yeticom Optima III mobile. I believe this to be the 3rd gen, as the filter button is now on the clarifier knob and the faceplate says "10-12m AM/FM/SSB Ham Transceiver." If I'm mistaken, please correct me.

I've been seeing a few Cobra 29's float around ebay that have had LEDs installed to backlight the slide switches.
Here is a link to a youtube video showing one that has been done this way:
Has anyone done this mod themselves? I'm wondering about LED size and placement.
I'm waiting on a reply from the seller that has them listed. Yeticom's official website mentions upgrades and a different microphone. I'm waiting to hear whether the one's they're selling have the same upgrades and better mic.
As for Echo and beeps, they're fun to mess with, but definitely not...
Thanks for the replies so far.
9C1Driver, yes, I would like a smaller footprint, but the 2950DX will fit in my console so I'm leaving it as an option.
On a side note, the Anytone 5555n will NOT fit in the console after doing some checking tonight, so I'm no longer considering that radio...
I've decided it's time to replace my aging RCI-2950 that has made it through 3 different vehicles. There's nothing wrong with it, just wanting a new look and a smaller footprint. I'm currently considering a few different rigs and primarily use them in my vehicle for 10m SSB. I do like to be able...
Is this still available? If so, have you used it on 10m SSB and gotten good signal reports from it? I'm still weighing my options between this, an Anytone 6666, and a Lincoln II.
