I own one GO-9 transmitter, pretty much complete (missing some shock mount 
parts.)  It was made in 1944 by Westinghouse, likely at Baltimore near 
where I now live.

The PBY at the aviation museum in Pensacola, Florida has a GO-9 
installed.  There is a web site for that, I have not seen the thing itself.
