Put a tiger tail on it, and run it at low or medium power output.

I owned just one so far; Baofeng UV-5R.

when I get mine I am thinking about putting 2 or more 1/8th wave counterpoise inside the radio

I tried low power just can't hit the repeater

I am planning to get the uv-5r myself

    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
