I did find a pic of what my r390 tag looks like, http://www.motorhomesusa.com/k1kq_com/restoration_r390a.html

which is KIKQ restored set, so I assume this and mine are original. Dan

> Hi, has anyone ever posted examples of original R390 tags (non-a)?  I see what I think is a replica  tag being sold on eplace with s/n 5002 and also on a set being sold with s/n 4942. Both tags look similar but are quite different than the one on my set with much lower s/n 2064,  which I believe is an original. The most striking difference is that on mine the bottom two lines of text are the same width,  and the font size for the "COLLINS RADIO COMPANY" is smaller than that for "500 KC TO 32 MC", which are the bottom two lines.  There is a similar difference in font size for the two tags online but the lower line is wider than the line above it.  The contract number on mine is 14214-PH-51-93, same as that on the two online examples.  There are other differences for the top two lines regarding width of lines of text. Dan
