[R-390] R-388/J3 to 51J4 upgrade

[Steve Hobensack]

There was an upgrade kit sold many years ago and a lot of recievers were changed to 51J4. About ten years ago there was someone selling namplates for R-390, 51J', 75A' line of receivers. I bought one. I know the adds were in Electric Radio magazine. I don't know if they are still selling them.
