So is this an older news release or bulletin? I thought MFJ shut down and ceased its manufacturing operations back in May of 2024?

Tom is the one that designed the amps for them many years ago.
He has a company now called CTE and does (was doing) repair to these amps.
There's a lot of them still out there and on his FB group he still helps people troubleshoot and repair them.
He posted this last week for those who are still running them.
The reason I said was doing is that he has stopped working on them because of the problems caused by the building at MFJ.

    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
