[R-390] Need R-390A dial cover

Hello, Don. Long time no read. I just "re-joined" the list after a three 
or four year hiatus from working on 390A's, and I'm surprised at the low 
traffic level. Back when, this was the liveliest list around! Is nobody 
working on these things anymore?

I'm just getting ready to start on a '54 Motorola R-390A that followed 
me home a few days ago. It has a dial cover, but the inside clips that 
hold the clear window are missing, as are the screws that hold the 
clips. If anybody has the screws/clips for the window glass, or a 
complete dial cover, please contact me off list. Looks and paint wear 
don't matter, as long as the metal doesn't need body work. I'll strip 
and repaint it as part of the overhaul anyway.

Thanks, Jerry W5KP
