[R-390] R392 help

[Tisha Hayes]

I think that asking questions and for help on any of the R-389, R-390,
R-390A or R-392 radios fits in perfectly with this list.  There are so many
similarities amongst them all.

I too have a R-392 that is paired with a T-195 with the modems and RTTY
devices that went along with it.  I even have the shock mounted bases
 (that are H E A V Y).

It seems to be a radio that runs quite warm and for a while I experimented
with using a little DC/DC converter to boost the 24 volts that is used for
B+ up to 60 volts (a module off of eBay). Results were mixed and I would of
had to change quite a bit of the radio to adapt for the higher B+.

In all, it is a fun, retro-radio. Even more retro looking than the R-390A's
