[ARC5] [MMRCG] WWII Aircraft Set- Primer?

[Mkdorney]

SCR-609-A/SCR-610-A was used on US Army Artillery spotting aircraft throughout WW2. For instance, the L-6 Piper Cub had either a battery or a wind powered generator to power the radio. Pilots did not like the generator configuration because that configuration eliminated the use of the radio when the plane was on the ground.
