[R-390] Yikes!!!

I saw the pictures on this one when it was posted.  Absolutely gorgeous 
unit, fully restored by Rick Mish.

I had to recently make a similar price decision to purchase a T-368 model E 
transmitter.  The price was higher than I expected or wanted to pay, but I 
had to ask myself the following question:  "Are you willing to let a few 
hundred dollars stand in the way of purchasing a beautiful T-368 transmiter 
which is a late model, overhauled near the end of it's military service 
life, and only comes along in this condition once every few years?"  The 
answer to that question is now obvious:
