Hampedia..$177 Lowballed !
Them cheapskate hams :) Jeez, That's more for a parts unit !!!

I got $3500 for a black+gold fill engraved + plated hardware (non A)
Took me a month to do
The cut down "A" model is usually worth less to AM listeners to the lack of
R/C filters, more around that look pretty, lots of part availability.
Nice R-390 "A"s go $450-$700 average depending on the make, aesthetics,
aging of the rocks, grease mucked inners, meters, who restored them..I can
go on and on
There are 2 fellows named Chuck Ripple and is it Rich ? (Miltronix) Look
for pages on them (Sorry, I cant find the link)

That's Rick Mish d/b/a Miltronix http://www.dxing.com/r390/mish.htm

A full boat refurbished Mish R-390A sells for at around $2000 if you buy

one
from him..... R-390 is more. Less if you have one and wish him to work on

it
for you..... see his price list.

I own one of Rick's R-390A's (link on my web page) as well as CV-591A
sideband adapter and LS-206 speaker and they arre amazing performers and

as
near to new as you will likely ever find one.

R-390 ect ect.
It's a collectors game I'd guess. Sorry, but prices are way too high
for me to get excited about a boat anchor and a boat anchor it is.

Michael,
I just looked at your web page and the R390 looks like brand new. Does
it have the radium meters?

I remember not too long ago I could have bought R390's for about a
dollar a pound. They are a great receiver and built like a tank.
