Uniden 980 SSB - crowdsource the frequency mod?

I don't see that happening regardless. The 980 has been discontinued and was plagued with display issues. There is no money in it even if Mark decided to make them again much less someone else purchase the rights to the work and then try it. There just is no cheap, easy, marketable channel mod for this radio.

Why do people keep saying it's discontinued? People have been saying that for 10 years.

Stuff like this is why:

No idea where he got his info from, though.
 
I am sure Uniden cranked these things out so there is plenty of NOS sitting around. That's probably how they do warranty work too, if it can't be fixed in 5 minutes or less a new radio is sent out.

    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
