[Milsurplus] 51J-3

[telegrapher at att.net]

My R-388/51J3 arrived in a tattered box today via FedEx.  Oh me.  Well 
anyway it does not have the dial cord that turns the drum.  It does have 
both the top and bottom covers tho and after wiping it down with a wet 
cloth appears to be pretty nice.  Usual wear and tear for a 50+ year old 
receiver.  I won't apply any power till i've looked underneath and then 
will do so only with a variac in line.  The main tuning knob is from a 
BC-348 so now i've got a nice spare for one of mine.  This will be 
another item i'll need to find for this receiver.

Where would one find a dial cord for this thing?  I've got to come up 
with a manual also unless it's a very close relative of the 51J-2.

Sigh.
