I know it's not 11m but I am so tickled that I just had to post it.Sunday night I was mobile on 3.800 MHz. and worked GW3HGX David in Wales,UK.I was using the FT-857 and a Lakeview Hamstick antenna.I then had several contacts in Michigan,Pa.,and Florida all on 3.800.First time on 80m from the mobile and it won't be the last.20m is easy but 80 starts to get tough.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D">

    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
