CORRECTION: I made a typo on Robert's call sign: should read: Robert
Downs, WA5CAB.

>> Hello,
>>
>> I need your assistance to locate sources of documentation for two
>> boatanchors that I recently acquired. The first concerns the Navy
>> (Bendix) ATD transmitter vintage 1940.  Fortunately, there is an
>> excellent article in Electric Radio, volume 35, and some general
>> information on the Internet.  However, I have not been able to locate
>> a source for the manual or even a schematic.  I believe that the
>> manual I need is  NAVAER 08-5Q-39; or, possibly, TM 11-487A, 58.  Do
>> you have any recommendations where I can obtain the manual?
>>
>> The second item, I that I need assistance with, is an US Navy Radio
>> Receiver, Model REH, CDL-46271.  This is a Morale received built by
>> Belmont Radio Corp. (BRC) toward the end of WWII.  A Google and
>> Dogpile search lists only three postings regarding this 1945 set.  I
>> have e-mailed the posters, but have not received any
>> responses.  Again, I hoping that you can point me in the right direct
>> to find the manual.  BTW: I did check Riders; but, did not discover
>> any similar BRC civilian radios.  The REH, it seems, is unique with
>> its permeability tuning.  Most of BRC' sets were capacitively
>> tuned.  Any information you can provide on obtaining REH
>> documentation will be appreciated.
>>
>> Thanks, Tom, K8JRM
