[CW] ITT MACKAY 3010C Manual

[Richard Knoppow]

    FWIW, there seem to be three receivers of about the same era, 
all made for ship board use or at least marine radio use. They are:
  The RCA CRM R6A, the Marconi Atalanta, and the MacKay 3010C.
     They are of slightly different vintage but pretty close.
     The most advanced seems to be the 3010C. All appear to be 
double or double and triple conversion. Curiously, the image 
rejection for the R6A is the poorest and is less than the 
rejection of the AR-88. It makes me wonder if there is not a 
misprint in the instruction manual.
   There is also another version of the R6A designed for both AC 
and DC supplies, evidently for shipboard use. I can't remember 
its type number except its an AR something and have not found an 
instruction book for it. Evidently it has another tube.
    I am curious about these receivers. Have never used one and 
not sure I've ever seen one. I am sure there are members of this 
list who are very familiar with them and would like to know about 
any comments, experiences, etc.
