I have 2 AR3500's that need to go. I really don't even like using them and do not need any more collector radios sitting here collecting dust.

One radio is working but sounds a bit funny on SSB I am told. Sounds good on AM. I believe it may be a adjust for best pattern on oscilloscope adjustment but not sure. It puts out full power.

Second radio puts out full power. Here is the But,,, But you have to touch the varactor diodes for it to put out any power. It is pretty much sitting on 24.0000MHz. I believe the problem is the CPU may be bad.

I have one microphone and all factory manuals and schematics Oh yes one of the radios has the factory dial a watt. I would like to sell all in one package and to someone that may fix the bad one and not part it out. being that I am a sentimentalist and these radios are a bit of a classic.
As for price I am not sure. PM me and we can talk and I will answer more questions and send more pictures if needed.

    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
