Probably not due to nuclear effects, but I have sadly seen lots of radio
gear destroyed by RF on grounds from nearby transmitters when antenna lines
failed. Not to mention my personal favorite, the radar that wasn't supposed
to be pointed toward the radio shack. The R-390 wouldn't be damaged by
that... hell, the front end probably wouldn't even overload....
