11 meter is very quiet?

Hey, this out of the Jeep while mobile?

With them other truckers I always ask:

1). Radio check (“Break One Nine radio check”)

2). After reply, I note my MM and direction of travel. Tell ‘em how THEY sound.

— Up to 1.5/miles distant is an average to count on.
Not about your rig so much, as theirs.

This series tends to bring others into the mix. You can wind up with 4-5 reports.

(Advise 63-mph to do it. No distractions. Traffic flow is around you.)

3). Find you a high point over the Interstate. Best is inside a big bend in the road. Pull off on an exit with nothing much locates there.

— Roughly every 12-minutes you’ve a new group. Tell them you’re wanting to know:

A). Mic Gain (“Hows this sound!”)
B. Mic Swap (whether you do or not)

And the old, reliable: “Hey, I just dug this radio out of a closet and installed it. Does it sound weird?” (Etc).

.
you must be bored

    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
