Hello Everyone:
I have had several e-mails lately asking me about this manual.
NAVSHIPS 91678 (dated 6 June 1952) is the manual for the Radio
Receiving Set AN/URR-23A.
You may recognize this radio under its Army/Air Force nomenclature,
the R-388 or the civilian
model number 51J-3.
This is a very rare manual. I didn't know it even existed. It is a
very thorough manual unlike the
Army or Collins Radio manual that are commonly available. The older
manuals have much better
quality photos than the later versions and the equipment I use for
reprinting them reproduce the
photos very well from the originals.
I am willing to produce a limited run of high quality copies of this
manual. Quality will be the same
as the NAVSHIPS 0967-063-2010 (R-390A) reprints I produce.
Price will be $43.50 with coil binding and including shipping within
the USA. I am happy to ship
to international buyers but the cost of shipping will be higher and
coil binding will not be available
because it brings the weight of the package over the First Class mail
limit and shipping becomes
prohibitively costly.
If interested please reply by e-mail so I will know approximately how
many I will need to produce.
I have a few available from the last production available for
immediate delivery and the first
responses will receive these.
73 and best wishes for the upcoming Holiday Season!
Michael, W1RC
