25 watts and an inverted vee got me from South Carolina to Costa Rica on 10 meters today. That was pretty darned cool. Took a lot of patience, but he finally responded to my call. He said I was 5-1, but it was good enough to get a confirmed QSL in LoTW. Good enough to make an HF noob happy!
 

Very cool! I did Pa to Ca on 10 watts, not DX but still far. My first DX was Italy on 90 watts and a simple EFLW so I share your enthusiasm.

    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:
    Okay, sorry, will put in a forum
