[Boatanchors] KWM 1 History Question

[Nick England]

p.100 of Jay Miller's book has a story but I didn't see a photo.
There was also an article on U-2/KWM-1 in Jan 2007 QST but I don't
have that issue
And finally - an old quote from the BA list...
"   Note I still had the F. G. Powers U-2 autograph 516E2 28V supply in
   running shape w. 2 car batteries.  Anyone else ever even seen
   that 28V supply?

   Everyone here DOES know 1st U-2s had KWM-1s, don't they?  If not,
   this disclosure may mean 100s of folks now know they inadvertantly
   own "spy radios."  Notice the echo  when you say "spy radio"
"
from who else but the late great Marty Reynolds AA4RM

cheers,
Nick
