Dave,
Extremely well done and informative presentation on the Command Set transmitters.  Thanks for posting.  I look forward to the one on receivers.
Mike, W6MAB

  The SCR-274N began life as a "carbon copy" of the Navy
  ATA/ARA set, which is always painted black (salt air and all).
  The first production run by Aircraft Radio Corp and the early
  Western Electric production where painted black because
  the specifications were copied from the Navy set.   Later runs
  by Western Electric and Colonial dispensed with the paint as
  a cost-saving measure.

  To learn the differences in the "flavors" of Command Set
  transmitters, go to:
