Does anybody have any idea? I own two of these receivers New Old
Stock, never used. These days they are good for almost nothing.
The R-278B/GR is a heavy tube type receiver that was used in military
air traffic control towers. Beside its today's uselessness, in my
opinion it equals R-390A in quality and workmanship.

I saw it once, it is indeed an incredible machine

A lot of surplus was like that. Really well built, and must have
cost the governments an awful lot in the first place. But so much
of it was so specialized that the well built construction meant
nothing.
