[R-390]R-390/URR Questions

WOW! What a great response. Just like being in a room full of experts. You 
guys have given me enough information to keep me busy for a while.

A couple of things I have noticed about the radio which you might enlighten 
me on.

The front panel, which doesn't seem to have been refinished, is an unusual, 
at least to me, very pale pastel green color not OD at all. Anyone have any 
idea where it may have spent its active duty life?

It also has what appear to be thin transparent plastic discs extending out 
from under the KC and MC change knobs to protect the panel from being worn 
by the operator's fingers. Is this a common feature?

For you guys who maintained these things in the military. It has a dymo 
label on one of the inner covers which says "WASHED 9 AUG 67". What would 
that have entailed?

Thanks again for all your help.
Mike
