I just picked up this nice little rig.
But, the Display has ENLARGED numbers on it.
How can I change it back to normal size ?

Thanks in advance, Dave - N2JBO
 

Nice rig I had one several years ago and if it's the same as my 817:

press 'F' momentarily
rotate the 'sel' knob until you see 'DSP' above one of the A B C buttons under the display
toggling that button should toggle large/small display

Good luck
 
From the current manual from their webpage, top of page 16 will explain the steps to change size.

Page 16 of the manual tells how to toggle it back.to small sized characters. This should work, I use it all the time....I love my 897, great rig.
 
old post but simple answer, press F key, rotate mem/vfo channel till you see DISP in window, press it to toggle large or small

    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
