[R-390] R-390A Manufacturer ID help

[Robb Urie]

Was asked that question and it appears to have a silkscreen panel.  Some 
minor paint wear on the "BFO Pitch" and I can't see any indentations in the 
metal.  Only trying to figure what data plate to purchase and for my own 
curiosity.
I would imagine an engraved panel would be much easier to re-paint if I 
decide to go thru the entire radio.

Thanks for the help.

It may be all Collins.  Does it have a silk screened panel or etched?
