Bill,

I think I have that R390A.  :)  Shhhh!  Don't tell anyone, though.

I was one of those military spooks assigned to the NSA at a location in the
late 1950's that is, to this day, still secret.  I had both an SP-600 and an
R-390A at my operating position for voice intercept..  I recall that the
SP-600 had the standard grey panel, but the R-390A, while not exactly black,
was a very dark shade of grey - something like charcoal grey.  Not trying to
keep this discussion going - just putting in my two cents worth.
