Hi Gang,
II am working on two 2990's with the same issue. The volume is only about 25% of the expected loudness when turned all the way up. I did a receive alignment on it and it is receiving very well. These are pre-2000's radios and have the EPT295013Z boards in them. I replaced the 2 electrolytic caps (213 and 217) in the audio path and that had no effect. There is not much after to audio chip. Any thoughts?
Also, on the 1st radio there was a diode and resistor soldered to the bottom of the board near the voltage regulator but they were not done in a factory way. At least I don't think so. Do you?
