Cool radio.

Does anyone need the remains of one of the prototype AN/WRT-1s? 
I have all or most of the modules, but no rack, and I must admit that 
many of the modules are missing parts. I do not know how different (if at 
all) this beast is from the normal AN/WRT-1s.

I hate to scrap the thing out, but it looks like I may. At least I will 
give the Millist a chance to save it.

Also in the not-sure-what-to-do-with-it category is an National AN/SRR-19 
receiver. From what I can see, it looks like a horror. Anyone have 
experience with these?
