Can anyone ID this crappy example?

Thanks!

Looks FF-ish to me, but I can't get in there to check.

It has a few Futura-ish undertones. But that ain't it.

I don't think it's Dax because the R's leg originates too far from the stem. How about Formata Condensed Medium, or FF Scala Sans Bold?

I see what you mean about the way the corners seem almost rounded, which is why Dax sounded good at first. I'm stuck!
