[R-390] R-392 connectors

[Gord Hayward]

Unfortunately I don't have any spare R-392 connectors, but I saw a pile 
at the Rochester
hamfest this past weekend, both the power and audio, so they are around. 
 In the mean time
since power, audio and break in are on the same connector (diagrams on 
the Rovero site) you
can get molex female inserts which will push over the pins very nicely, 
so cover them with
heat shrink before you push them onto the 392 pins and you get a 
temporary but nice
connection without any surgery on the set. (I don't get to be burned at 
the stake for this one ;-)

I have an R-392 and its a really nice radio, but its big brother (R-390 
or R-390a) is even
nicer.
