[R-390] Rolling your own R-390A

[pete williams]

Interesting observation------ if  you're thinking/hoping to resurrect
a R-390A from   junkers or dilapidated cabinet/hardware and need a few
essential modules , have a look at the score card for  some of the
bits based on what is  coming out of the auction site in recent times.
Do the additions on recent sales... a pair of  meters $240, an IF
module $230 a set of knobs $60 and if you're really pressed for the
aesthetics, a front panel $300.
Seems more sense to by a  couple of  junkers  more or less complete
and make one  good one-- probably all the other stuff is there.......
but if you need spares, there's always the other source.
