RICH  @B> }

During the '60s I was a Navy type who used/fixed R390/390A receivers and
allied TX/RX comm. gear. ( We called them ALL '390s' with no regard to
suffix.) We did have comms with the Air Force, usually from Thailand,
because of the on-going SE Asian festivities. It seems I heard the F104
called the 'thud' because of crashes...or was that a different airframe???
Damn...been a while since 1967 =:^0 Geeze! 'Had hair and hair color back
then...
