[ARC5] Heater wiring - 12V vs. 24v

[Leslie Smith]

Hello Michael,
In our exchange of e-mails, I'm unclear about the order but I'm certain this set is US navy, because I see the anchor and "released on" in yellow Navy paint adjacent to the 7 pin connector on the rear panel.  It's not RAAF, unless the US navy gave these sets the the Australian RAAF with THAT marking on it.

On a different subject, how do you justify the HUGE effort in collating all the info for your book and the time to write it?
