Bearcat 980ssb clarifier unlock mod

Hi guys,
I have one of these rigs, it's a first version, with the SWR board that stands up near back of the unit, You know, the one with the middle screw through the three holes in the back of the chassis?
Does anyone have a clarifier unlocking mod for this unit?
Also, does anyone have a schematic on this particular model.
I've looked over YouTube nothing there I've searched Google nothing there..

Thanks,

Freelance coders for hire… Reverse engineering software is needed. Concept: First photos are taken of the top and bottom of the circuit board. Then component values are added to the top of each part within the photo. The reverse engineering software will then takeover and convert everything into a usable schematic.;)

Probably would be cheaper than hiring me to trace it down and draw it up the old-fashioned way. Not that it's worth anyone's while anyway.

And Howard W. Sams Company lost interest 40 years ago.

    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
