Can I put dual Finals in this radio?

someone must know.

Sure you can, if you really need it there is even a 2290 final mod for that radio. In either case though unless you can do the work yourself it's not very cost effective. You want watts per dollar not dollars per watt.

where can i find the mod.

 

[Butcher318]

Justin used to do it, I think he charged like 150-175 dollars. Do a search on the web, it's out there.

 

[bigred222]

i looked and cannot find it.

For the money spent it's not worth adding a final. There are so many new radio's out that have so much more power anyway, sell it and get a different radio. The 3900 comes in a dual final version.

As far as the 2290 mod, you will just have to e-mail or PM the techs on the forum and see if they will help you. Again though, it's such an odd modification that it would cost a bunch. Then you might be three states away and have a problem, so you take it to a shop on the way and they have no clue how to fix it because they don't jnow what and how it was done.

Heck this lower powered radio would work well with that 3 pill base amp your looking for so why mess woth it?

no tuning after words just set the carrier and won't have to worry about the bias after that it is set with the parts you put in
3 parts to install.....
3 parts to remove
1pc ERF-2030
1pc EN-369FN
1pc 33K ohm, 1/4 Watt Resistor
1pc Heat shrink tubing
Thermal Grease

I was getting around 30-35 with it clipped but then put the limiter back in ...remember the power supply has a limit
but works good ...
