Recently a friend of mine gave me one of these $25 dual band radios. Haven't really messed with it much. I saw a secret menu people were unlocking. Mine will not do it and I noticed mine doesn't look exactly like any of the one I saw. So I am assuming that function was taken away?

I myself am not familiar with the UV-5K's (with the hidden menu) as coming in a Baofeng. I have a UV-5K (which has been widely reviewed here) - and it is a Quansheng.

    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
