> Hi Gang:
> They're all done, finally. Last one went out yesterday.
> Most of the folks who now have them had to wait several months to get
> their copy. Many have commented that the photos are excellent and are
> generally well satisfied with their copy.
> I have three extra copies left over. They are bound with a coil and
> will lie flat on the table. If anyone wants one now is the time to
> step forward. There will be no waiting time. However, there will be
> no more as I don't think I will be doing this again for a long time.
> Price is $43.50 delivered.

> ORIGINAL POSTING:
> In 1996 I produced some half-decent copies of the 1970 Navy
> NAVSHIPS 0967-063-2010
>
> 1970 version of the manual for the R-390A receiver.
>
> The originals are pretty well much unobtanium. It is my
> understanding that the NAVY required the old issues to be
> turned in and they were destroyed. I got my hands on an
> original and made the copies directly from it. The NAVY manual
> is BY FAR the best technical reference available for the
> R-390A. It is NOT a rehash of the Army/Air Force manual set.
> If interested please reply by e-mail.
