need to gather info on new items added to museum today!

[ed sharpe]

Mike: opps! I should have said... not radar countermeasures,,,,,  I would
suppose since it went to 45 megs the arr7 was used  for voice stuff?

need to find the cannon plug that used to be on the front of this receiver,
as it was removed and some kludge Jones plug put on the back of this radio.
then once we get the cannon plug for the front we will have to find the one
that fits to it so we can cable it up..... then we will be doomed to quest
for the dynamotor!( need to know which dynamotor was used with this.)

ok looks like  the museum needs an arr5 to go along with it then.

will keep a look out for an apa 11 for you Mike we are looking for one also,
however  it seems many times things will show up in pairs!
