I'll also post this on the original post but this also seemed like an appropriate place so here goes. I made a post looking for recommendations on a solid tech to repair a botched conversion on a President Lincoln II +. I bought this one fairly cheap off of a local that said the conversion was done but it didn't work on 11 meters. Thought maybe it was a simple fix. Well, come to find out, whoever did the conversion used a welder instead of a soldering station. The board was fairly well butchered in the area of the needed resistor. Member Brandon7861offered to take a look at it for me and said he'd do his best to fix it for $20. That was an offer I couldn't refuse. I didn't know him from Adam, and even though I've been a member here for a whole lot of years, I've honestly been away from the forum world for a long time. I shipped the radio out last week and Brandon received the radio Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday evening he sent me a message saying it was done and it would go out Wednesday. Got it back today and he did an outstanding job cleaning the board up and fixing the botched conversion. If anyone needs any work done, Brandon is an honest, trustworthy, stand up guy. The world honestly needs more people like him in it. Thanks again Brandon, I really appreciate it

    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
