[ARC5] Fw: Single Transmitter Single Receiver 274-N in P-51-C

[Robert Downs]

That was my thought as well.  The MN-26 could have taken the place of the
BC-453

The card is for an aircraft with the four-chznnel VHF SCR-522-A and a beacon
band receiver like the BC-1206-series.  Up to four air-to-ground channels
are shown for each field, and one or two homing channels from airfield to
aircraft.  It seems unlikely that the card shown would have had much
applicability to an aircraft with only a single-channel HF SCR-274-N set for
communications.  Perhaps the restorers do not have the appropriate original
card for the time period depicted by the restoration.
