[R-390] re: Chuck Rippel's parts kits

[wli]

Hi

It was back in 1998 when Chuck was an active member of the list. He had a lot to contribute, and was a source of many handy hints re the care and feeding of the 390's

Many of the components in his kits were from ATC. I bought a few kits back then.

Tubes:  (2) 3TF7, (6) 5749, (4) 26Z5W, (7) 5814A, (3) 6C4,
            (1) 6DC6, (1) OA2WA, (3) 6AK6, and (4) 5654

Parts:    (2) Z216, (1) T208, (4) coil slugs for RF deck, (2) T501/502,
            (1) T503, (7) 8-50 pf trimmers, (7) 3-12 pf trimmers, and
            (2) 5-25 pf trimmers.

Freebies: AC input adapter, antenna box, odds and ends 

Price for both of the above was something like $150. Sounds like a lot, but really is not when you consider that these were unused hard-to-find components. His wife did a fabulous job of packing them up. Nothing was damaged in my shipments.
