Hey, not off topic at all! I was working on R390s/390As along with
TCS/TEDS-REDS/ URD-4 ( shudder!!), GRC-27 etc.  sets during Navy Nam time
back in the early-late '60s. By the way, "A" or "nonA" we just called them
all '390s. The TCS manual covering later sets, 7-12, is 900  291-1B, mine
dated 14 Novenber 1944. The earlier manuals are here too but I just can't
put my hand on them right now. The manual is in the scan process and I've
been promised server space for it so it can be shared on the web. The TCS-12
( complete...all the bits) I gave LST-325 it headed up stream on the
Mississippi so listen for the ship to work a pre D Day TCS.
