Hey all, I've been messing around with this radio for a little bit now and have noticed a significant spur on 28.380 when transmitting on 27.285. The only thing done to this radio since new was the conversion for 11 meters. Is there any way to rectify this? From what I can gather it's the mixer causing this. I was thinking maybe trying a low pass filter to filter some of the harmonics, but I don't know if that would filter the spur at all or not. I don't want anything splattering on the ham bands. And my thinking may be way off base, but that's why I'm asking here. Don't be too hard on me please lol
 

I was told the problem is the mixer isn't linear and the harmonics are causing the radio to emit a spur on the 10 meter band and there is no real fix for it because it is the nature of the design. I guess I will sell this radio as I don't want to cause any harmful interference on amateur radio bands

    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
