just to pic a nit - reed relays were certainly around before 
WWII - patented in something like (IIRC) 1938 - and forms of 
them used in various electronics of the time.  While not 
generally thought of as a "reed relay" (usually more as a 
magnetically operated vacuum switch) the antenna relay in an 
ART-13 is a form of reed relay. And the ART-13 was most 
certainly a WWII transmitter.

best regards...
