Default R-390A question

Hi Scott,

It's a Capehart R-390A. I'm not sure who made the PTO....I don't have
anyone to help me lift it out of the case so I can look at it this
evening.


Don't lift it out of the cabinet, lift the cabinet off of it. Turn it face
down on the bench, and lift up the case.

I hope to have a friend help me extract it from the cabinet in the
next few days...I'll try to figure out which PTO it is.

Thanks!

So...my question for those of you that have R-390As or know them well,
when I tune "through" a CW signal, should I hear a nice DC note all
the way through or should it warble and show some distortion.

Depends on your PTO. Who made your R-390A? Some model PTOs are better
than others, and some will wobble while being tuned.
