[R-390] New to Group

[Wes Bolin]

Hi Al
Glad to meet you here.  I still need to finish Re-capping the RF deck on the SP600, then reassemble it!  I saw the R390 at a hamfest and it looked
dirty but complete, and "it worked the last time he turned it on".  So that will be the next project. In the meantime, I can glean info and become
familiar with it.  But the SP600 is on the front burner right now.
Thanks for your advice and I'll keep you up to date.
 
Wes
