[R-390] R-390 (NON A)

[Steve Hobensack]

   I agree. I was a ditty chaser in the Navy in the late sixties. They were 
all called "R-390". The vast majority of the rcvrs were the A model, but the 
"A" suffix was never added in casual conversation.

My opinion is that the phrase "R-390" in casual use can
be interpreted either generically, meaning either the
R-390/URR or the R-390A/URR, without distinguishing
between them

Thats the way it was when I was in the Navy then the shipyard. They were
all
'390s'.
