[R-390] Oldham Coupler Springs and ReCap kits

[DAVEINBHAM@aol.com]

Fellow R-390 Drivers,
A little white envelope arrived in the mail today from that gentleman and 
scholar, Al Solway, way up there in the cold, frozen North. The envelope 
contained 3 dozen springs for the Oldham couplers used in out favorite 
radios, the R-390(A)'s. I am gonna keep 3 of 'em for my own use. The rest are 
up for grabs.... almost free. Send me an SASE, preferably of the padded 
persuasion and I will send you 3 of 'em as long as the supply holds out. When 
they are gone, they are gone. Thank you, Al.Send your padded SASE to :

Remember the discussion about a month back about using PayPal for ReCap kits 
? You guys voted 9 to 1 for PayPal. Well, guess how many kits I have sold 
using PayPal ? Exactly 1 to the guy who first suggested it. Unless PayPal 
sales increase to at least 50% of all sales, I will discontinue using PayPal 
on November 1. As of today I am reducing the premium for using PayPal from $5 
to$3. 

Is anyone confused ? If you want to use PayPal, you ADD $3 to the regular 
price. ReCap kits are still available by mail ONLY at the old prices. I 
currently have 10 in-the-can kits and 16 under-the-chassis kits in stock for 
immediate shipment. Well, almost immediate 'cause I am gonna try to slip off 
and go fishing for a couple days next week.

Kindest regards,
Dave

R390A capacitor kit.
I have put together a ReCap kit for the R390A.
It consists of:

(13) 0.1 ufd   600V
C256, C309, C504, C505, C517, C521, C528, C531, C536, C538, C543, C547, C548

(7) 0,033 ufd   600V
C275, C529, C533, C534, C541, C545, C602

(7) 0.01 ufd   600V
C549, C553, C601, C604, C605, C607, C608

( The above are Orange Drops or equivelent. )

(3) 30 ufd 300 v electrolytic C603A, C603B, C603C
(2) 47 ufd 300 v electrolytic C606A, C606B

( The above electrolytics have axial leads. You can wire them under the 
chassis and leave the originals in place to retain stock apperance. Or you 
can order capicators small enough to fit inside the cans of C603 & C606. Just 
remember you will have to deal with the Dreaded Black Ukkumpucky to get the 
guts out of the cans of C603 & C606. If you do not specify at time of your 
order, the under the chassis capacitors will be shipped.)

Finally, one each of :

0.047 ufd 100v C227
8 ufd 30v tantalum electrolytic C609
50 ufd 50 v electrolytic C103
0.22 ufd 100 v C101

I cannot find a source for:
2 ufd 500v C551 oil filled paper 

so, I will include a very high quality poly cap. I have installed one of 
these in one of my R390A's and I can say I cannot hear any difference. They 
work great. This is the AGC capacitor.

The price for this recap kit is $80.00 US funds. Price includes UPS or US 
post delivery. Canada and mexico US$85. Western Europe, South America and 
Pacific rim US$90, rest of world US$93. All sent airmail if possible. ALABAMA 
RESIDENTS MUST ADD US$3 STATE SALES TAX.
For your convience, I now take PayPal. If you wish to pay with PayPal, add 
US$3 to the above amount and have PayPal deposit it in my account at 
Biologicalinst.

Send orders to:
Dave Holder
Biological Instruments, Inc.
820 South 29 th. Street

USA
Payment may be check or US currency. ( If you send cash put it in an envelope 
inside the envelope you mail. AND IT IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR RISK) Sorry, no 
credit card orders.

Before anyone starts to bitch about the price, please bear in mind, my gross 
profit will be about $3.12 per order. That should earn me something less than 
minimum wage..... before corporate and personal taxes. I reserve the right to 
withdraw this offer if it gets to be a pain in the butt.
