[R-390] R-392/URR MWOs

[W8BVH]

Hi Paul:
I have marked your e-mail for further study and reply. I have not done 
anything with it so far. I recently moved and put this on the shelf until I 
had time to at least take the top and bottom off and maybe get a few pics. 
I'll be glad to share what I find w/ you and the rest of the group, but 
probably not for a couple of weeks. I'll be happy to try and answer all of 
your questions if you want to pose them. I know very little about these rigs 
but am interested in finding out.
Best regards,
Ralph Howes
