[Milsurplus] CRV-46123...what it is?...

[WA5CAB@cs.com]

Group,

The April 1943 radio equipment listing that I have for the B-17-F, B-24, B-25 
and B-26 (no model letters given except as indicated) says among a long list 
of other equipment, SCR-269-G.

>The SCR-242 came out in the late 1930's (1937, if I recall the contract =
date on my BC-310 name plate correctly), so it was ancient by April, =
1943, when the LBG was lost.  I have read many references to the "ADF" =
in the LBG.  IIRC, the SCR-242 has NO automatic DF capability.  Besides =
that, the SCR-242 uses 14 vdc, not the 28 vdc found on a B-24D.  =
Consolidated's 1942 manual set for the B-24D indicates that the SCR-269 =
was standard.
