No manual here either, but my R-366/TRR-5 has a schematic riveted to the
bandswitch turret cover. Interesting, the title of the schematic is
R-366/TTR-5 (note the typo!)
Manufacturer Espey, Contract number NObsr 43229, serial 221.
Must be a unit intended for entertainment - has a pair of 6AQ5 output tubes,
oversized dial markings, and a big lockable tuning dial. Covers BCB to
30MC, AM/CW, uses miniature receiving tubes like 6BA6, 12AU7, 6C4, etc.,
600 and 8 ohm outputs.
We need a manual: there is a special set of tools, including a gear set
lashed to the inside right front side panel, obviously something for the
turret, something similar in purpose to the R-390 green gear, perhaps.
