Those 3TF7 seem to always be missing. I have 2--R390 and 3--R390A,
awaiting work. Two of them are missing the 3TF7. one of the R-390/URR
was restored by David Medley, probably the last one he did. I have
that one up soon, it buries the Smemeteer when turning it on with no
antenna or output.
Found and games.....

Yeah, you got it right. Undoubtedly someone will ask you if it's a A.
