[R-390] R-390 sideband adapter

[Tom Norris]

I think that Jan is relisting the various kits as folks buy them.
Within a couple hours of my buying one of the kits, he had another
relisted. I think they're all Buy It Now items aren't they?

The CV-591 has become "collectable" over the years. Ages ago
you could pick one up for nothing. It is a decent SSB demod, but
the circuit in Jan's kit looks like it would do as good, if not better
a job. The only thing missing is the *CLACK* as you change from
upper to lower sideband. Well, that and the tubes.

cheap
