Good to see my guess wasn't too far off the mark!

What was EAC/Hammarlund charging in the late 60's for the rocket
logo ones? I remember an ad in QST of that era with a price in the $2K
- $2.5K ballpark, not chump change!

And throughout the 60's there were always surplus dealers who
advertised in the back specifically wanting to buy 390A's. I think
I remember one in NY and another in Fla. Until the EAC/Hammarlund
ad I don't remember seeing any offered for sale (new or surplus) in QST.
