[Mike Morrow]

I'm sorry to hear about the mishap.  The.last report I saw was that the crash site had not been found.

I have no ATC or ATC-1 in my collection, just an ATC calibration book.

Hello, 

I loaned a beautiful ATC transmitter to a friend for his TBM Avenger torpedo bomber as he was going to a gathering of TBM’s. Actually I had loaned a bunch of other equipment too. He was over a nasty part of Arizona, East of Phoenix, and had a catastrophic engine failure. Since landing options were pretty much nonexistent, he and his passenger bailed out. Thankfully they are a bit banged up from the landing but will live to tell the tale.

I am hoping to replace the ATC radio as it came out of our PV-2D Harpoon. It was a beautiful radio. An early version of the ART-13 but still in its Navy ATC livery. Would any of you happen to have an nice ATC available for sale?

Thanks in advance for any help,
