[R-390] Fair Radio - holy smokes

[Jim Brannigan]

I had a T-195 and would spend hours just watching it tune up.  I called it
my demented vacuum cleaner....
It would auto-tune a 15ft. whip on 160M
The T-195 and 100amp 24V power supply put it in the "cruise ship" boatanchor
category....
But alas, it bit the dust.....I still have parts and modules around here
somewhere......
