Need Amp Recommendation

The 9-turn coil will probably get reduced to 4 or 5 turns. The 5-50pf trimmer cap will be too small, even with the 56pf disc cap in parallel with it. Adding a 47pf or 56 pf cap one at a time in parallel will let you "step" up in capacitance roughly equal to the control's adjustment range. Odds are you'll end up with a total parallel capacitance around 200 pf. A trimmer with a higher capacitance range would accomplish the same thing with fewer parts.

    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
