New guy here & this is my first post. My current set up is a wilson 1000 mag mount with a short load whip, I can not run the regular 62in whip because it puts me too tall. I can run the trucker 5000 witch is 52in.tall witch will be right @ my height limit.My ? is will the trucker 5000 out preform the 1000 with the short load whip? Thanks for any & all info.
 

i never tried the shortload for the wilson . but my opinion
i think the trucker 5000 would be better.cause i think
that short load would be the same as adding another coil
which =loss..just my opinion i could be wrong. maybe someone
has tried this and can help ya out more

    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
