[ARC5] Collings B-24J radio project

[Taigh Ramey]

Hello Dave,

The aircraft are presently in maintenance in New Smyrna Beach Florida until
late January where they will be back touring around the country again.

A NIB BC-450 would be great!

Here is a link to the Collings Foundation's web site:

http://www.collingsfoundation.org/menu.htm

I think you will be able to get a tax write off too for any donated
equipment as they are a nonprofit organization.

Thanks,
Taigh

Taigh:

I can probably help you out with the RX control box.  I have some NIB
BC-450s with dials on them.  Where is this project located?

Sincerely,
 
Dave WA4OBJ

Hello Mike,

The control heads for the 274N are installed in their original locations and
are just out of the picture on the web page. The receiver control is
overhead and the transmitter control is lower on the center pedestal. They
are in poor shape but will hopefully be replaced with better ones as they
are found and acquired. Here are two additional shots showing them:

Very interesting page!

The B-24J cockpit photo shows a BC-602 control box for the SCR-522-A, and no
SCR-274-N control boxes.
