[ARC5] Surplus Radio Conversion Manuals

[Clare Owens]

Hi Mike,

I still have the SRCM Vol 1 that my mother bought me when I was a novice
back in 1956.  Its copyright date is 1948.  It even has a nice solder flux
splotch on the title page and my freshman year college dorm address written
inside the front cover.  I think I was still using my old wood burning pen
as a soldering iron back in 1956.  Yikes!
