[R-390] Good morning question.

[Richard.McClung@Dielectric.spx.com]

What Steve didn't tell you when he said he was an 05H (That's Ohh Five HOG)
is that he was a Morse Intercept Operator. Usually high speed with a mill.
Probably not quite as good as a regular Navy CW operator who could copy two
nets (one in each ear), drink a cup of coffee, smoke a cigarette, carry on
a conversation with two other people, file previous messages, maintain the
shift log, and go for a head break.......All at the same time. Did I miss
anything Foster?

Hey, I'm not biased in any way. I spent 21 years in the Army 05B4SLA /
32Z4HGM / 31Z4SLAF4.

Good morning all,
  I am new to the list and am looking to purchase and put into operation an
R-390.  I have looked and read many things on the web. My background is an
O5H at Field station Augsburg in the 80s so my love for the R390 started
then.  I guess I am asking where can I obtain an operational one.  I am not
a repair guy that's for sure.  I would appreciate any and all
recommendations.  Thanks.
