[R-390] Just wanted to say hi .. new member with a 390A (for the 2nd time)

[Pete Lancashire]

Picked up a couple weeks ago

A R-390A that was used by a VERY heavy smoker, he had two.  The person
cleaning out the estate
took the older Collins made unit, I bought from him the newer one.

Even though it has its covers it is completely covered in cigarette
tar/nicotine. For now it is in side a
plastic trash bag to keep the smell contained. The brown color in the
photos is what it really looks like.

This is the first R-390A I've had since just about everything was lost
in a fire in the late 1980's.
