Hi Mike

The production B-10s started to be delivered to the USAAF in late 1933
(November as I recall).   I can certainly see the radios begin changed over
the entire production run.to one of the sets you describe.

It would be interesting to know what radios were in the XB-10 delivered in
1932 and the first  few production aircraft delivered in late 1933.
