[ARC5] Jeeps with Radio Equipment

[Tim]

Some more fun details in that photo....Note the non-NDT tire on the rear
(improvise, adapt, overcome,,,as with the radios!).  Also a PE-103 can be
run off a 12 V supply of course..The receivers have no spline cables,
probably fixed-tuned which would make sense at an airfield...
There appears to be a B-17 or maybe a C-47 in the distance.  Also the
"B-24" is actually a C-87 VIP transport.  Note the windows in the bomb bay
area...
The photo info probably indicates it was "received" (rather than taken) in
1950...Dunno
I guess Tehran was a hotbed of funny business in WWII with axis and allied
folks running around, nodding to each other on occasion.  Maybe a "Jeep"
needed to be identified by the Russians as "American" if it wasn't already
obvious...hihi

Long ago and far away...
