Thanks, Frank, for the link. Sad.



I suppose that's how the government treats much of it's oblselete
surplus. Not as something which will be useful and valueable to someone
else, but as scrap. Anyway, the picture was taken years ago, and it
seems Fair Radio ended up with many of these radios.

I was seriously considering getting a R-390 a few years ago. I have
some test equipment, and the servicing documentation is excellent. I
figured I could get it going very nicely. I didn't. Hobby money's a
little tight now, and I really don't have the space. Oh, well.

Other radios are more practical, but few are so cool.
