Hi R-390X fans,

Since this may be of general interest, it's being sent to the
entire R-390 list instead of by private mail.

John <[email protected]> wrote about an upcoming visit to the West,
and asked about BA collections. 
A while back I was touring the streets of Virginia City Nevada
and saw a sign advertising a Radio Museum. _Quite_impressive_ for
a private display. Even included an R-390. If it's still there,
I highly recommend a visit. 
Caveat: it's been a few years. Do any list members know current status?

John: if you visit the S.F. Bay Area check out the yellow pages for
electronic surplus. Mike Quinn(sp?) near the Oakland airport was jammed
with grey panels when I visited years ago. Down here in the San Jose
area we have a few surplus parts outfits. One has a fair (no TM
infringement intended) collection of those ancient vacuum tube thingies.
