Hi All,

During the Hallicrafters 40 meter Net on Saturday February 25th I became 
aware of a RX that Zenith made for the Americans during WW2. It was called 
the TransOcean and came with one of two front cover designs; a Sailboat or a 
Bomber.

It is smaller in size then the traditional TransOceanic and does not have 
all of the fancy design work and eye catching appearance. It will operate on 
either internal batteries or by AC wall current.

I am very interested in learning more about its features and operation. 
Anything that any of you could tell me will be much appreciated. Thanks!
