[R-390] FW: Regional distribution of list members

[John Saxon]

I'll put in my meager inventory here...mainly because I don't see many Texans in this mix.  I don't have much but I do enjoy them!

1 R-390
3 R-390A
1 R-392
1 Hallicrafters S-19R Sky Buddy (nostalgia here - the receiver of my youth, mid-50s)

Oh, 1 K3 also.

QTH is Pearland, TX (southern suburb of Houston)
