My meter is not falling back until I give the radio a thump with my finger under radio. Are these meters known to go bad, this radio was made around mid 90's

On transmit there is no needle movement, but mod. light does come on. Does this sound like just a meter replacement?
 

Seems like whatever Asian company was making meters for radios back in those days has a very high failure rate, I have radios much older that the meters are still perfect... Well for whatever reason yes meters from that time period seem to fail fairly often.

Good thing is you should still be able to get a replacement... Call up Galaxy or check Ebay, saw one there the other day for $7.00 with free shipping....

    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
