ATAS 120 in the attic

Update on the attic ATAS 120, this last weekend was a pretty good test and I was pleasantly surprised. Saturday afternoon and evening netted contacts in all four corners of the US and DX as far down as Argentina. These were mainly on 20m and some on 40. The antenna tunes on all bands after a little trouble on 15, but with a some sheetmetal adjustment all bands are fine now. I made a few trips from the house to the truck to check the difference, the edge goes to the attic install. No more trips into the attic for now. I have to work on the 80m Hamstick I slapped in place of Solarcon 99 I had out on the roof, its not optimal yet. Thanks to those that threw me some advice and Channel Jumper for the extra "life" instructions. :-)

    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
