[R-390] Need tubes and help on a R-392

[Thomas Guest]

Hello

I would first like to thank everyone who responded with tube location and or correction for my tracking problem.

I will order from AES. I almost never remember to check there anymore. I used to buy from them when they sold antique radio part but since they changed hands and the audio is their bag I buy from other suppliers.

I will try the fix for the PTO. It sounds like that should correct the issue.

Once again thanks a bunch.

Antique Electric Supply has all these tubes (www.tubesandmore.com)
In the "search" box, type in the tube number with "T-" in front, like 
"T-26A6" (without the quotes, of course).

If you prefer, I have all these I can sell you for $4.00 each (plus maybe $5 
for shipping), but I am out of town right now and won't be back until 7/29. 
I could ship them after that.

Hello,

I have a R-392 that I picked up a little while ago. After a couple of minor 
repairs the set works well.

I got around to checking the tubes and I have found that some of them are 
weak. I would like to try swap in some new tubes to see if I can get it to 
work better.

Would anyone have these tubes for sale or know of where to find them?

4-26A6
2-26C6
1-26D6

Also when I got the set working it seems to be off on the frequency display 
by about 10 kHz. The counter seems correct from fully clockwise to fully 
counter clockwise. Does this mean the cams in the gear train need to be 
aligned or is there something else I should be looking into?


Thanks in advance.
Tom Guest
