Rogers, Ar
Put this together over the last couple of days. Now I need conditions to try it out.
Current SWR:
1.5:1 on ch 40
1.3:1 on ch 19
1.2:1 on ch 1

Put a gamma match on it.
I am only 26' up right now, and only 8' above the roof line.
I have more work to do on the mast to get it where i want it.

We'll have to see what happens next.

Conditions sucked earlier today.
But I've talked to WR-1212 in Hawaii an hour ago.
Also, I just talked to AD113 in Victoria Mexico a minute ago - both on 27.385LSB - just like they were in my neighborhood...

Unfortunately I had to work until 10:30 PM today. Maybe tomorrow.
I pushed it up a couple feet higher, and mounted the old A99 above it:

    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

    Wes, it's better if you start a thread on the main forum, more people are going to see your question.
  • @ heartbreaker3473:
