I was pleased to note that the Valiant Air Command has a couple of what appear to be original condition BC-348's in display cases in their museum (Titusville, FL.). But otherwise they also tend to be of the type that would yank the old radio gear in order to better do aileron rolls on the deck.
They restored a FM-1 Wildcat that was recovered from Lake Michigan and I was curious if they still had the radios. But I figured that even if I could find anyone to ask they would just look at me funny.
I sent an e-mail to the 8th AF Museum at Savannah asking if they would like an ARC-27. They have a B-47 parked outside so I thought it might be of interest to them. I also offered mint BC-624 and a BC-625 in the lower part of the case. But they never have replied.
