While spelunking in the cave, I came across this long forgotten item.
Another pickup only monster that weighs in at about 110 pounds. Its a two
man job to move this cube of heavy metal.
CV-157/URR SSB Converter, for R-390 series receiver.
Specs and picture and manual link here: (Thanks Nick!)

Here's a video that shows the operation and audio quality of the CV-157,
despite this Brit's camera being totally out of focus.

$500 - there are precious few of these still around. This one hasn't been
powered up since I got it at a Dallas hamfest about 25 years ago. But I
never got around to using it as I also had a CV-591 which was more desktop
manageable.
