[R-390] Wow R-389 sold for $4K on Ebay

[William J. Neill]

McKinney, Texas, eh?  My brother-in-law and his wife live in  
McKinney.  Would be nice to have another R-389 to provide  
companionship with one I've had for probably 40 years or more,  
Collins S/N 363.

I wonder just how many R-389s are still alive and where they are.
