Ok heres a dandy scenario. I have a 2950 and it works great then it doesnt transmit Iput it away and after a few months it works again anyone have any ideas?? Weird thing is I have a 2510 that was doing the same thing nuts I tell you I dont get it
 

is this a base?if so how big of a powersupply
is it a mobile?are both leads going directly 2 battery
if the radio was broke i dont think it would transmit at all
imho

sounds like it could be some intermitted mic problem. try another mic. if you can get a 6 to 4 pin mic adapter and try out another mic a cobra wired style i do the adapter thing with my 2950Dx makes it real easy to try different mics
 
Its no the Mic and this is a mobileThis is crazy I never seen radios do this and I have 2 different ones that do this but Ive had them both since the mid 1990s finals put out great when its working so bad finals Im kind of ruling out :roll:

    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
