There's a rumor that a YH transmitter was built for beach landings. An
ARR-1 sat on some big landing craft so they'd hit the beach in the right
place.
A ret Adm sez the YG-ZB system stayed secret 'til early sixties
--AND--
You can modulate a HP-608C set @ ~200mhz w. a URM-25 @ ~1000kc that in
turn is modulated by ur portable MP3 player. Outa the ARR-1 comes
contemporary music via the good offices of 1938 sub-carrier tech.
Know one ret. Navy flyer who sed they'da never gotten back to
island SBD bases w/o a YG-ZB aboard... "the islands all looked
the same"
