Hi,

having a FTM-350E TX, I noticed that the configuration of the 0ohm resistors was not the same as for the 350R.

On the 4 slots for the 0 ohm resistors, I only had 2 :
X X
X----X
X----X
X X

instead of
X----X
X X
X----X
X----X
for the 350R

I just tried to remove the top one, so my conf is now :
X X
X X
X----X
X X

Now the TX range is
136-174Mhz
400-480Mhz

What if all the resistors are removed ???
Does it increase the TX range more.

Happy TX !

    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
