[ARC5] RU/GF and SCR-183/283 coil sets

[Michael Tauson]

Hi, Folks,

A little bit back, there was a discussion regarding the color of tags
on various models of the RU/GF sets and how they were distributed.
Does anyone happen to have a list of the frequency ranges and intended
distribution (and maybe the year they came out) for the various models
(as well as those for the SCR-*-183/283) for which I might ask, beg or
grovel?  I can even pay copying charges should that be needed.

Also, while I'd like to put together a working set (preferrably Navy),
I would like an extra receiver from either version ... something that
can be scrungy but works or can be made to work without major
incidents since all it will be used for is letting me play with a TRF
again.  A receiver & some coil sets (including maybe LF/MF?) (and a
tuning knob from Fair.) and I'll be a campy happer, going back some 50
years to when I used to make them, regens and crystal sets.

I know it's a long shot but what the heck ... can't hurt to try.

BEst regards,

Michael, K3MXO/KH6
