Hi everybody. I"m a newbie.
I started getting interested in amateur radio a few months ago. Getting ready to take the Technician test in May when the local club has their meeting. And today, I got my first radio: a Yaesu FT-227. The antenna & power supply will have to wait until next payday.

Nice to meet y'all.

Congrats on your ticket! Don't let the ol' h.f. boys on here badger you into upgrading unless you're ready,lol! :ohmy:
Enjoy getting your feet wet.

    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
