cobra 200gtl on its way

got back out in the truck this weekend to play with my setup abit more. seems that as the radio amp warms up and is used to talk alot the deadkey drops from about 32watts down to 25 or so. would this be normal as a radio warms up? upon cooling the radio its back up to 30 or so.
 
It is normal. It is just the biasing circuit doing it's job.
 
A friend bought one and brought it over so we could put it on 11m, the mod worked, 4 watts on low 30 watts on high, we did not give it a work out to see if the power would drop. The 200 sounds good but could use a little more modulation.

    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
