President McKinley pre fcc


I have a new McKinley AM/SSB radio (not the McKinley II with FM) and was able to open it up and turn the modulation up. Sounds excellent to all my locals with frequent tests on my mobile. I cannot remember what pot it was but found the video on youtube somewhere. I turned the pot clockwise to raise it, but you must at least must have a meter that reads modulation or better yet real test equipment. If you turn the pot too far it will literally drop to zero and lose all modulation.

    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
