[R-390] Manufacturer of R390A

[Tom M.]

Paul,

The frame and modules could have all been made by different cos., or all the
same one.

The best way to check the frame is to:

a. look on the back and see if it is stamped there I'm so good at pointing out
the obvious).  EAC did this and so did Motorola.  Some others did not, like
Collins.

b. check the label on the counter.  It will usually match the maker, unless it
says COURTER PRODUCTS, in which case your frame may be Stewart-Warner, but no
guarantees.

If the frame has one fuse it is likely an early Collins (or Motorola if it says
so, did Mot make some with one fuse, anybody??).

Each module will have its own info.  They are all pretty easy to check except
for the RF deck which is a bugger.  You'd need to remove the modules to look,
except for the power supply and xtal deck which you can see without removal.

Good luck
