[R-390] R-391 slugs (again).

[Jim Temple]

I have recently obtained a very nice R-391 that is S/N 379 of the 1952
contract.  I have corrected a few corrosion related problems and, hopefully,
only have one remaining repair.

When looking at the front panel, the left most RF coil bank (16-32mhz) has
four RF coils.  Since the RF deck is Mod 2, it has the smaller diameter
slugs for this bank only.  Now, I was under the impression that all four of
the 16-32 slugs would all be the smaller diameter.  The rear three coils
(Z-206), in this radio, are small diameter with blue dots on top of the
slugs and the front coil (T-206) is a large diameter slug with a red dot on
top of the slug.

One of the small diameter, blue dot, slugs is broken into three pieces and
needs to be epoxied.  What I am unsure of is the identification of the front
T206 coil/slug.  Should this be a small diameter, blue dot slug, or is it
correct as a large diameter, red dot slug??

Your vast knowledge and helpfulness has and is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Jim Temple
