Tom Frobase N3LLL has kits available to solid state those 6082 tubes and the rest of that circuit: tfrobase at gmail.com contact him.

Highly recommended unless you want to cook pancakes on the side or top panels of a R-390/URR. More preferable than using those pesky fans.

Thanks Paul, I'll look into them, I remember people talking about cooking up something to eliminate them but didn't know anyone actually had done it, is it from Sigmapert?

Bob,

Every R-390 I ever owned had some sort of problem with a cooked audio deck until I obtained this Collins '52 model in excellent condition.  I immediately brought and installed the 6082 solid state replacement on eBay and with the louvered heat flow through the cabinet is just warm to the touch.  I highly recommend it.

73,

I have an old one I might throw my R-390 in if I can fit a thin line little fan inside it to keep the big 6082 tubes from frying the rest of the receiver.
