Some of the -C models apparently did have a 28 volt buss, but I thought
the big change came with the -D model. In any case, the Memphis Belle
was reportedly a B-17F-10-BO accepted by the USAAC on 15 July 1942. The
manual excerpt (attached) says its liaison receiver was a BC-348-H.
Which does make one wonder why they want to obtain what is today one of
the rarest 1936 models of the entire BC-224/348 family of receivers.
Perhaps not destined for the MB at all?
