I have an original wiring harness for SCR-274N, which was
removed from a P-40.  It was for a 2-RX, 2-TX set.
It is currently in the rig I used for W5E.

Jimmy Doolittle wrote a letter to W.E.Co employees who built
the radios used on his B-25 Tokyo raid, saying that they gave 
excellent service.  It was sent to the Kerny plant, which 
makes it near certain that he was speaking of SCR-274N.
