Need to try to do an alignment to get radio recenter from crappy clarifier mod
found some info but not where test point locations are any help would be awesome.
 

Not sure where I came across this. It is marked "PC409" but check it out before the "tweaking" begins.

The counter wont lock due to VERY low signal levels usualy associated with ic chips. Also circuit loading may be an issue from your probes. You are gonna need a signal amplifier inline to boost that signal so the counter will lock. Also possibly a cap inline with the probes to prevent any circuit loading effects.

    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
