I have a old radio shack .64 with coil at the bottom .I want to know if the
ground plane (feed ground) is short circuit with live feed (center feed +).
Check it with an ohm meter. Depending on the method used to match impedances, there can be what appears to be a short at other than the general design frequency range of the antenna. That's because of how the matching is done, a tapped coil. That 'short' is frequency dependent.

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
