[R-390] antenna trim red dot

[bw]

Cecil,

I agree. I also got into some of those earlier posts on non-As before I
realized they were not intended for the R-390As. I never minded the off
subject info on other radios. I've learned some good stuff on SP-600s,
R-71s, etc.  I've never seen radio related/off topic threads get out of
hand. For example, it was good to hear about those radios that Hank gets
from Germany. The Simple Green thread seemed to live for months, but there
was actually some good radio stuff in there too regarding corrosive effects.
I'm trying to think of how Nolan's public deer dressing tale got back
towards radio subjects, but I forget how that worked out in the end.

I would rather be on a list where humor is tolerated rather than be on a
list where it is squashed immediately.

Yep. That question on engraved panels seemed to work out okay. We just had
an oven burn out and I didn't do photoresist work or RF deck drying in it.
