For my fellow Hammarlund RBG collectors.
I have found some history on the RBG. If you will go to the NSGDept
Wahiawa, Hawaii Web Page:
<http://www.anzwers.org/free/navyscpo/wahiawa_introduction.html>
And then scrool down to and click on:
"1943 - 1945 Page 2"
<http://www.anzwers.org/free/navyscpo/wahiawa_history_1.html>
Look at:
"A narrative article about Supplementary Station "HYPO", Wahiawa,
Oahu, T.H." and click on the pages that give a history of the
intercept activities. You'll see the RBG listed on page 5.

Go pack to the Web Page and next scroll down to and click on

Scroll down to Photo ID-ed "Bldg 6 - Interior Looking south - R
Branchers" and click on it to enlarge it:

You'll see RBG's on the right side and at the back of the photo.
Go back to "1943 -1945 Page 2" and scroll down to Photo ID'ed "Bldg 6 -
Interior looking north - R Branchers" again click on it to enlarge it:

On the left hand side of the photo you will the RBG's RBG's you will
also see the HRO table top racks on the right side.
This is the first information that I've found of the use of the RBG.
I'm glad to find this information and hope to unearth even more in the
future..
Yours Aye,
