Yaesu FT-8000 parts radio.
I know nothing about these radios got it from Radio tech around here that Retired and is selling/sold out.
Open to a offer it at least has a good front end I think.
The antenna connector was off the board I soldered a jumper to connect to a so239 connector for small key ups to see if Tx'ed and it did around 30 watts on my cb watt meter off and on?
I was pressing buttons not knowing what I'm doing.
It sounded like it was Rx'ing white noise I have no idea what freq. to go to.
I'm sure someone could use it for parts?
I put in a temp antenna connector from a old junk vhf radio not right one but worked.
As see in video the 430 mhz side has Tx the 145 side wouldn't?

    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
