Thanks in advance for any tips and advice!

I'm looking into the best/cheapest and most effective way to end up with a duplexer that would allow a 2M/440 antenna and a separate 800Mhz antenna to feed one transceiver.

In my area I do a ton of work on 2M/440 in the mobile but also love heading the local FD which is a 800MHz analog fm system. While the wideband 2m/440 antenna provides relatively O K reception on 800, I imagine adding a dedicated 800Mhz antenna would greatly improve this (and help overcome the icom 2820s slightly sloppy 800 sensitivity). Unfortunately I don't see any off the shelf duplexers for this solution.

Thanks again for any help

    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
