This was a 350W +/- rig that TechRadio built for Great Brittain to replace
some old Marconi trailer-housed field tx (self-excited osc.?) in a 17" rack.  
Yes 17" rack.

Has 2 813s in parallel modulated by 2 805s.  Quite a brute.

The two were at Dobbins AFB & xtal-controled on 8720.  Were labeled HF-1
& HF-2.  Surplussed out ~1975 with the SCS-2 I donated to Robbins Air Museum...
which is on display, indidentally.

The two T350XMs still live in the Atlanta area.

Odd bird that Technical Radio company.

More oddbodkins.  Also recently found Gon-set started as ~1946 sales arm 
of a Burbank co. called Waterproof Electric.  Waterproof Electric seems 
to have succeeded another place called Aircomp which was a WW2 defense 
contractor.

Or something.
