[R-390] R-390A is no more available at Fair Radio

[Joe Foley]

I don't know what everyone's whining about, they ran
out of T-368s eons ago!

They don't even have many parts left.

I dont' even have a spare 6000 tube for mine.

On the good side, I got the last complete T-368 form
them.

hehehehehehahahaha,... (evil sneer)
