[R-390] Re: Blasphemy Indeed..

[jlap1939@yahoo.com]

Friends,

Short (?) note...Had one point out privately that if
my radio was rebuilt by Dave (Medley) it prob. had the
12 volt tube mod...So why should I say anything about
people doing modifications on antique equipment....

It Does indeed..........(You could also complain about
solid state supply for that matter, but as seen in 390
mailman...Some spend their time, and make money from
removing "unauthorized" mods....). So maybe someone
could buy the orig. radio changed to a computer, and
restore it...

I send junk (often unwelcome) to people all the time
in hopes they will preserve another bit of tube tech.
CORRECTLY..Thats something I have done for years
w/antique clocks..(Sometimes what I send is not
junk....)

A reminder about Daves' 12V tube mod...Remember (as
pointed out by Dave), If you don't like it just put 6V
tubes back in, and find a ballast...Easy correction,
and still possible to do...

Regards,  John
