Hi Gang
My understanding is that about 200 assorted used units were purchased.
These were disassembled. Some of the parts (plus new and NOS inventory) was
purchased, bundled and put up for sale by Chuck Rippel a few years ago -- he
might have some left.
As far as the remaining inventory, ATC needed to make space, and I have
taken over most or all of the '390A material and some other items. (My
office/warehouse is only 15 mins. away.)
Not quite set up -- still organizing the inventory. However, I can tell you
that most of the R-390A components were harvested from receivers that were
in use at one time or another. I can't say whether they were "depot dawgs"
or not -- could be -- as the RF and IF decks are well mixed now.
If anyone needs anything in a hurry, let me know. Offerings and prices
remain as shown on the ATC site at this time.
You say the number is pencilled on? ;-)
Barry
