Hello everyone, I have noticed a problem coming on with this radio, I also am still using the hand mic that comes with it new, and as I change bands using the SSB mode at times you go to key the mic the needle on the face of the radio doesn't raise as you are talking....but if you try this in AM mode and the needle just raises up to maybe a 6 or 7 on the meter inside the radio.......never use on AM mode, what do you all think or where to start looking for the problem ?...

    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
