[ARC5] [Milsurplus] ARRL National Convention Mil Radio Display

[Henry Frederick "Meils" Meiseles]

Was the Korean Conflict ever officially terminated, if so when?
I often wondered about how little the allies (at least seemed
to) directly dictate affairs in what was, at least technically speaking,
occupied Western Germany. (OTOH, I get the impression that the USSR
did have a thing or two to say in the GDR/ DDR!)

Depends on what date you use.  The Instrument of Surrender with Japan was
signed in 1945 but the final Peace Treaty with Japan wasn't signed &
ratified until Spring 1951 and went into effect in 1952, just in time for
the Korean War.  Until that time, we were technically at war with Japan even
though hostilities had ceased.

Anyway, this means the Type 11, Type 15 and a few other systems qualify as
well.

Doncha just love when I mess with stuff?  :-D
