Visited the USS Missouri at Pearl Harbor last week. In the giant ship's
communication center, I saw an R-390A prominently featured in the radio
stack. This ship was refitted during the 80's for $500 million. I
suppose the Collins was integrated at that time. I have a picture if
anyone's interested.
