Re: [IRCA] SP 600 /R390

[Milspec390@xxxxxxx]

What can one add? AR 7030, fantastic receiver. Friend & radio buff, Rick 
Sitz, loaned me his several years ago. Great dynamic range, pulls 'stations 
between stations' better than other fine quality sets.  Size perfect.

SDR-1 Anti noise-o sounds very much like FRR-60 blanker, as described by 
ET's.  Lacking manual, can't say for sure. Noise duplicated, inverted, mixed, 
interference gone.
 
 R-390s benefit greatly by good hose out. Friend Dave M., as have others, 
runs his thru car wash, air dries, tosses in attic for few months. Try that with 
HD stooge radio....
 
 
  Grease, dust, and - let's not forget the era - all nicely coated 
w/nicotine. Cleaning rags come away brown for a reason. Nothing like listening to sigs & 
enjoying a Chesterfields.. 
 
  Experience indicates R-388's by far most reliable of R-390, 'A', & '388 
family. 391 excellent, just an autotune 390. 389 beautiful to  watch, slug racks 
moved by means of threaded shafts, akin to old reciprocal hand drills. R-392's 
scarce, as w/all, word's out.
 
                                                                             z
