Has anyone run across any pictures or other documentation of the service use
of AN/ARC-5 or SCR-274-N racks for *more* than three receivers or more than
two transmitters. I know that some array of such racks existed, but I've
never seen documentation of their actual service use.
I view the classic command set installation as consisting of a
three-receiver rack and two-transmitter rack, in which the other receiver
and transmitter units that are not installed in the rack at a particular
time are, if practicable, in nearby storage just like the tuning units for a
BC-375, GP-7, SCR-283, etc. would be. (Except that special limited (if
ever) issue units like the BC band receivers and T-15 to -17 MF transmitters
would not be included.)
