[R-390] 'sellabay' R-390A withdrawn

[John Lawson]

A previous thread discussed this radio:  eBay item # 5846801040	 the 
R-390A with the very worn front panel and the (surmised) "velvet mechnical 
action".

   I notice that the Auction is terminated with the following reason:

"The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing."

Also of note is the highest bidder - [$306.50; res. not met] is an 
individual with three (count 'em: 3) total feedbacks, of which one is 
negative for non-pay...

   I'd have taken the damn thing down, too...

   Be curious to see where it ends up next.


I'm just now starting to work my non-A back to a condition of receiveness 
(receivetude? receiviousity? never mind....) and once it's hitting evenly 
on all 30 bands, I'll take the R-390A down for a much-needed refurb.  By 
that time I oughta have the R-388 panel refinished and the radio re-tubed 
and aligned - not to mention bringing it's dead PTO back to life...


    Good thing there's 36 hours in a day...


Cheers
