[ARC5] Navy LM Use

[Scott Johnson]

I do indeed believe that, I just don't believe the 618T was installed in the
P2V in 1962.

Hi Scott, et al,

I flew late model P-2V7s in 1968 with VP-18 out of Roosy Roads PR. We had
one ARC-38A and one ARC-94 (618T) in the radio compartment.  There was an
ARR-41 also as HF-3. One overhead wire and a trailing wire too.

  will look for my old NATOPS manual to see if there is a picture.
