Hello

I came across this on fleabay SWR Meter and see that you can do basic SWR readings (no power) and has 2 PL259s for 2 antennas and one for the radio with a switch. I was wondering if it could be used in reverse, 2 radios and 1 antenna. Would running it backwards damage the swr circuit? Thanks for any tips!
 

You could run it backwards but the FWD/REF switch will need to have the wires reversed. If you don't the meter will read SWR in the FWD position and you will need to calibrate it in the REF position. All you would need to do is open it up and swap the two wires on the switch.

    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
