Anybody ever ran a Cobra Cam 87.. how do they work? My dad picked it up the other day for me, and I didn't know one existed. I had heard of the cam 85 and cam 88 from doing searches on this board. I run a cam 89 now, and I love it.. I know it's probably nothing special, but it's just something I like.. I'd like to have 1 each of alot of the old cobra models.

I expect I'll probably have to have all the caps replaced, everything in it will likely have to be cleaned out.. I'm sure it'll probably need various other things..

However, are they worth a flip.. is it hard to find information because they are flawed in any way.. I just don't want to spend a ton to fix it up, and not enjoy breaking it out every once in a while to play with.

Thanks,
Josh

    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
