While we are on the subject, do you recall the manual where this is delineated? Y books are stored in one of my shipping containers with
My test equipment and not available. Don't jump
Through hoops to look just curious if you or any one else knows where it was described. Others have already mentioned that it wasn't in the manuals they had.

Have a problem with a receiver not done "by the book"?? - heaven help the poor SOB that's involved with that!

Sherry and I had a lot of comm gear over the years as a hobby - but I didn't "officially" touch a Navy 390/A until I was helping my charges study for advancement at Naval Weapons Station, York Town, VA.

In our opinion - no where near enough "results" to be worth the effort...   And considering the IF in an "A" - figured the results would be even less impressive...    so never tried.
