[R-390] R-390A on LF.

[Phil Atchley]

Hi.
About a year or so back somebody sent me a modification for the R-390 that
allowed it to tune well below 500kc (down to about 10Kc or less).  As I
recall the "mod" was a simple one consisting to one inductor and two
capacitors that tied to the first mixer cathode.  It seems I recall that it
was a  "Barry" who sent me the mod,  though Barry Hauser says it wasn't him
;-)

Anyway, to make a short story long, I can't find my copy of that mod
anywhere, though I could swear that I kept it.  If anybody has it and could
send it as an attachment I'd sure appreciate it.  This time I WILL burn it
to a CD I have set up specifically for the R-390A.
