    The actual A.R.C. records that I salvaged in Boonton when A.R.C. was 
sold are at the National Air & Space Museum storage unit at Silver Hill, 
MD, or were, last I knew.


     To my knowledge these are only business records having little to do 
with use of their equipment.


     The Naval Research Laboratory in Washington had at one time more 
what I would call "operational" and test records, at least for the Type 
K prototypes.


     The National Archives in Washington DC had the Army records but I 
found little  about actual use of the equipment.


     Pensacola MIGHT have stuff in their library. Never been there. Ft. 
Monmouth, the Signal Corps laboratory, had very little and what I found 
was chiefly discussions of the direction finder gear. Wright Field had a 
few records, though not a lot on wartime usage.

     You would think that wartime applications would be recorded 
somewhere but I never found a "mother lode." Might be in unit records
