[Boatanchors] [MMRCG] Blueprints: WWII Ship Antennas and Gear

[Nick England]

Many Thanks to Dave!
I have scanned and posted these blueprints at
http://www.navy-radio.com/ant-ship.htm#1945
There are pdf as well as jpg versions there - these are 1/4 size to keep
file sizes reasonable - if you need original full res versions, look in
http://www.navy-radio.com/ant/ships/

Cheers,
Nick
