Hue et al.

I've got mine attached to a 2-foot square piece of 3/4" plywood.

Connected 'em all & drew outlines on board.  Removed the 4 sardine cans & 
put a deckscrew shrouded by plastic fuel line on each side.

So when returned to board, ensemble can sit near-vertical for better access.

Now, I'm bringing it to the biggest hamfest in these parts in a month
& will exhibit it with sign saying "reward to anyone who can verify
they used this in the 50s."

I've run W4TE- back down, the fella that got his from a SAC B45/47 training
area storage closet in 1960.  He still can't name a tech, training,
or operations reference

Tried my ex-bud the Korea RB45 pilot & think he's deceased.  Last
sighting in '87.

So if we're ever gonna harvest anything certain beyond SAC @ Colo Springs
had 50, we better get the data while the gettin's good

How 'bout you many other RS6 fellas tryin' the same boolah-boolah.
