Been cleaning out the shop before moving to smaller quarters.
The mention of American Trans-coil reminded me that I have a complete RF
deck from them from about 9/2000.
Label on side says: R390A Final RF unit, 540 7009 005, Collins S/N 370
Seems complete with tubes and calibration crystal. No longer have
anything to test it with.
How about $125 plus shipping for 16 pounds from 55438?
Also have a Steve Johnston synchronous detector kit (unbuilt) and book,
received 12/26/98.
Any interest?

PS: American Trans-coil has transformed itself into something else. The
sale in 2000 was their going-out-of-business sale for R390 class parts.
PPS: If you're interested in precise frequencies, there's an HP 3335A
frequency synthesizer for pure sine waves from 200 Hz to 80 MHz. You get
8 digit settings around 3 MHz, good to one Hz accuracy and precision.
You could use that as the VTO and the RF deck to build a hybrid with the
best of analog RF and digital technologies. Asking $300 plus shipping
for 45 pounds.

American Trans coil at one point was manufacturing them new for
Government orders up until maybe 10 years ago.
I'm not sure if their website even exists anymore.
