[R-390] Sound of the R-390A

[ccc24547 at vip.cybercity.dk]

It is easy to sound better than the NRD-545, its many other qualities untold. And with the diode load hooked up to a hi-fi amplifier the R-390A does in fact sound impressive. It does not, however, quite rival the Eddystone 880, some of which were used by the BBC for its relays in Australia others for monitoring. Its output stage can also be used for Public Address purposes. Full, bassy sound which can be toned down if one is going for DX legibilty.

Best,
