[R-390] New R-390A owner

[Ronald Davis]

Hello again
I want to Thank all for the help with past messages. I was lucky enough to
find two R-390A's here local. One is in very nice shape and the other needs
a little work. Both are complete and have covers and meters. I have alot to
learn and im looking forward to learning all I can about the R-390A. Can
anyone tell me if it is possible to run a QRP transmitter and use the R-390A
as a receiver? I run 5 Watts or less all the time and I would love to run
the R-390A as a receiver. I have two different antennas but they are close
in one point, about 3 feet. I am wondering if the 5 watts would harm the
front end of the R-390A? Also is there a way I can mute the receiver of the
R-390A while im transmitting. Please help if you can.
Thanks
Ronnie
