Groups,
NAVSHIPS 900,116 is the Catalogue of Electronic Equipment, which replaced
SHIPS 275 in 1946. Lists (usually with photos) all of the Ground and Shipboard
radio, radar, IFF, sonar, Teletype and FSK, etc. equipment in Naval service at
the time. Last revised 1952. 1448 pages. It does not cover Test Equipment
(there was another NAVSHIPS for that) or Aircraft sets. For those interested
in such things, there is only one known original, currently aboard USS
Pampanita.
Last month I posted a note saying I might do some more copies of it if there
was any interest and I had several responses. It took me a month to finish up
the scanning, cleaning and straightening, and I think I've notified everyone
who responded that it's now ready to print. But if not, or if anyone missed
the earlier post and is interested, contact me direct. Price is currently
$66.80 plus $8.29 domestic shipping via Media Mail. Overseas would be higher.
Screwpost bound in three volumes. Shipping weight 10 pounds.
