does anyone know if the 2sc2999 and Schottky diode swap for increased receive gain and less noise is just for am or does it help ssb too.
i read somewhere that it worked well for am but there was no benifit for ssb.
i have a dx 959 and i rarely talk on am anymore so i just wondered
thanks

    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
