Well I hope all of you can see my grin, which runs from my left/audio gain 
hand to the right Rf gain !!!

I have spent about a week listening to my restored R390.  Many thanks to 
Rick Mish/Miltronix, for all the care he has taken to get this old lady 
back to perfection!

I am blown away by the performance.  Much more than I had anticipated from 
a radio of this age.  I have it connected to an active magnetic Loop 
antenna primarily for MW, but I find myself reading the mail on SSB !!

Rick, thank you for your expertise and guidance in the care & use of this 
heirloom radio.    Gee, is there a 32V lurking out there for me to op on 
AM  ????    :)
