[ARC5] BC-348

[Mark K3MSB]

Good morning Mike –

Last evening I was reading an article on the Martin B-10 bomber in the
Aug/Sep 1965 issue of Air Classics magazine.    The article states:

“Standard radio equipment included both the SCR-183 command set and the
SCR-134; the latter incorporated the interphone system”.

The B-10 was produced for the USAAF between 1932 to 1934, and exported
between 1936 and 1939.
