 Sure looks like it, Jim. I don't think I've ever seen an R-391 until
you mentioned it.

      Looking at the second operator from the right, there appears to
be a cluster of four knobs just below the LINE meter. That fourth knob
would be the CHANNEL SELECTOR which would make the radios R-391s. Jim

    The photo looks strange but they they are all R-390 or R-390A.
There is something mounted above them. Maybe a TTY demodulator. I am
not sure. Tom
