main trading had a message in my inbox saying kenwood is discontinueing it due to no parts. surely when parts start flowing they will start v 71a up again
 

Depends, if parts become obsolete, production will stop permanent.
If it is shortage of components they might start producing again if parts become availablle again.
Without knowing why parts shortages are there we can't say is it?
If key parts aren't produced anymore it will be end of production.

    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
