Gents:

I have been contacted by a friend of the team near Portland, Oregon which is 
restoring a WWII PT boat. They want it to be complete as possible.

They have a TCS-13, but need some parts, and possibly a manual. The part 
they are needing at the moment (there may be more later) is the antenna 
knife switch.

The other piece of equipment they need is an ARC-4. I told their intermediary 
that the ARC-4 was a total piece of garbage, but, apparently, they insist that 
is what they want.

They have, at last report, made up the interconnect cables for the ARC-4, 
but need the unit itself and any supporting bits. They also may need a 
complete manual.

I have pointed them to Robert Downs for the manuals.

I will know more later this week, but in the meantime, could any of you 
please advise about the above needs? I will gladly pass on any suggestions 
you care to make.

Might there be another resource I should contact?

Thanks, and vy 73,

Kenneth G. Gordon W7EKB
