Title: R390A Manual Post by: KE5YTV on May 13, 2011, 03:27:54 PM I need a repair manual for my Collins R390A. After looking around I see there are several choices. Can anyone recommend one over the other?
Mike Title: Re: R390A Manual Post by: w3jn on May 13, 2011, 03:37:55 PM The Y2K manual. There's a link here http://www.r-390a.net/faq-refs.htm
Title: Re: R390A Manual Post by: KE5YTV on May 15, 2011, 04:23:25 PM The Y2K manual says that it is to be used with the Army or Navy manuals or both. ??? There are several different manuals out there. I was wondering if someone would recommend one as being better than the others?

Mike The Y2K manual is in Rev 3 by now & I think there is talk on the R-390A e-mail reflector of more work on the same. Been using just the 2nd revision of Y2K for years, little else is needed! Scott Seickel's excellent "R-390A Gear Train Rebuild" is a must and should be printed out and added to rev2. Think it is in rev3. Other than the Y2K, subscribe to the e-mail reflector for answers. Those that taught the mil classes are there to help. Craig, Title: Re: R390A Manual Post by: KE5YTV on May 15, 2011, 09:54:05 PM Thanks for the info. I've been unable to find the email reflector for the 390a. Do you have contact info ?

how is the ranger and thunderbolt treating you? dale/ka5who Title: Re: R390A Manual Post by: KE5YTV on May 15, 2011, 11:47:00 PM Hi Dale,
They're great. I've never received a shippment like the Thunderbolt !!! The driver left it on the poarch. Getting that box in the house was like trying to carry an anchor for an aircraft carrier. 73's Mike Title: Re: R390A Manual Post by: WV Hoopie on May 16, 2011, 12:37:18 AM Thanks for the info.
