142 gtl strange issue

Ok, be careful - the Cauldron could be hot!

Are you sure these transistors were in backwards, or is the silkscreening on the board from an earlier revision where they changed transistor vendors in mid production, that are backwards from the previous vendor?

Remember, the Collector on most Japanese transistors is the center pin, the Emitter is on the side closest to electrical ground (maybe through a resistor or resistor/capactor) and the Base is usually the one "biased".

    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
