[R-390] R-390 Digest, Vol 108, Issue 18

Johnsay, welcome!
I have several Collins radios at present. I had several R-388s in the past and they are AMAZING radios for the time and even today.
Currently, I have a 51J-3 which is the civilian version of the R-388. I use it with an outboard SSB adapter and it's really sensitive.
Also have a nice EAC R-390A.
The 75A-4 needed a lot of work to get it performing but it's also a 'keeper'. When the paper dial drums are replaced, these old radios sure look good, too!!

Hi All:
I would like to introduce myself to the group...??? I've have had several 
receivers of the Collins family pass through my hands over the years (R-388,? 
R-392 and R-390A also 52S-1,? 75S-3 and 75S-3B).?? 
I've been monitoring the group for a while and I've been pleased to see some 
really great information passed along.?? Currently I'm working with an R-392 and 
a recently 
acquired Motorola R-390A.? So I may need to tap into to the assembled wisdom...
John,? W8KX
