Why would a pilot want to net his receiver to his own transmitter?
That would probably set each plane's receiver significantly different
from every other plane in the flight.
Surely the procedure would have been for each pilot in a flight to net
his receiver to the transmitter of the control tower, or more likely the
transmitter of the flight leader, using his BFO. Then everyone is at
least *listening* on the same frequency.
