[ARC5] True Meaning of Command Set

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

The AAF Airborne Radio Equipment Handbook written at Wright Field in 1943 
has such a list with side view drawings showing approximately where in the 
aircraft the equipment was located.  However, it only includes communication, 
navigation and interphone equipment.  No IFF, countermeasures or fire 
control.  And it is probably only good for late 1942 and 1943.
