Repairing a kenwood ts440s with the famous glue corrosion issues. Few of the components had legs eaten off and I am just working through it (dots issue) Wondering If i can use a 1N4148 in place of MA858?. I can half solder off the remaining partial leg of the working MA858 if a 1N4148 does not suit.

    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
