Hi all have my dads messenger 250.. Has great transmit audio. But the recieve is next to mouthing.. I get receive when i first power up then it fades to almost nothing in 2 seconds same after unkeying the mic.. I don't have any paperwork on this I I fownd was a sevice bulitin for speaker audio quality I see tht was done. Anyone have any sevice manuals for this or know what/where to look.. Love to get it running . It was my dad as he got it from the local fire station when they stopped monitoring channel 9..

    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
