Many of these parts will re-surface at Fair Radio in Ohio if they are 
declared surplus.  Perhaps some were taken for parts for the few 
1051s still in service on other ships.  They have a reputation for 
being excellent radios but needing parts from time to time.  I 
surmise the same with the HF transmitters.
