[ARC5] [Milsurplus] What on Earth? (Navy Transmitter)

[Mike Hanz]

Ed Zeranski and I were just musing about that one a couple of days ago.  
Appears to be another one of a number of small instrumentation 
transmitters that the Navy acquired in 1940 and 1941.  Perhaps the 
better known of the types that were purchased was the Doolittle Radio 
Co. GWY-1 and GWY-2, which also used an 807 PA but had twin 6L6s for the 
modulator, and did not include the receive function (example at 
http://aafradio.org/sidebar/GWY-2.html ).  You can see the 
similarities.  This particular example on ebay has the shock mount, 
which is a bit unusual to find.

73,
Mike
