Just mounted stuff kinda temporarily. It does seem to tune without any gremlins yet. Just need to aggravate how I want to mount the main unit. Jeep is junky, so not afraid to get down.

I finally ordered a Breedlove UHF Ball Mount with 4" plates. I'm putting it on rear quarter as high as I can. Probably keep the K400 for mounting my dual Band antenna. I've decided against using the Duplexer. The ATAS will break my cherry and pave the road to better Screwdrivers

    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
