Hi guys I am a little confused on this old carbon resistor here, what exactly is the rule of thumb here, which is the first band ? The red ? If calculated like that this would be a 2.23 ohm resistor however it is reading 23.75 K ohms. If calculated the other direction it should be a 24K ohm resistor but that stripe looks silver to me not grey ‍♂️ thanks in advance

    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
