[R-390] Sylvania R-1451A/WLR-6 Waterboy Receiver

[ToddRoberts2001@aol.com]

Would like to inquire if someone on the list may have one of these 
R-1451A/WLR-6 receivers or know where I can find documentation or a manual for one? 
Recently picked up one of these unusual receivers and it is working! I believe 
these were made for use on submarines back in the early 70's. Tunes .5 - 30.0 MHz 
with nixie tube readout. Has similar I.F. filter selection to the R-390 sets 
- .1-1-2-4-8-16 KHz however this set uses ceramic filters. There are some 
pictures of one in Josh Rovero's website. Thank goodness this set is working but 
don't know what I would be able to do for it without a manual if it ever fails.
