While we're on the subject of crystal sockets/holders....
The Collins 32-RA has 5-pin tube sockets for the crystals and,
according to the manual, crystals in matching 5-pin holders were
available from the manufacturer. Has anyone ever seen these? I have
(or have seen) examples of just about every other type of crystal
holder ever made but not that one.
We have a 32-RA/BC-779 pair at Ft. MacArthur, a configuration that was
used there during WW2 to communicate with a HQ group located in San
Bernardino.
