Hello again
Well I ended up with a good condition R-392. Has a couple problems that I
will have to work out before im happy. One is the coupler disk that changes
the filters is missing. Does anyone know where I can get the little coupler?
Looks about like the VFO coupler on the R-390A but a lot smaller. Right now
its in the 8 kc position but I would like to be able to change it. Also, rig
is powering up fine but have not heard any stations yet? Just a static,
going to clean the contacts on all the tubes and see if that helps. It is
alot tighter in the R-392 than it is in the old R-390A. So if I do any cap
replacements in this thing it will be a real job hi. Anyone know of a good
cheap PS to run the R-392 on? My PS is struggling to provide the 28 volts at
3 amps. Anyone that can help with the R-392 please do, and I will sure
appreciate it. Oh yea, the second R-390A is getting a Recap kit from Walter
now. So I have two radios on the bench at the same time.
Thanks
Ronnie
