I don't have the MN numbers handy, but a rough description is:

Loop Control box.... has dyno to make 400 cps and two thyratrons and a transformer
or two.  Takes L-R signal and drives loop.

Loop Antenna...  in 'teardrop' about 18" long. Has motorized loop, compensator,
selsyn transmitter

Radio Compass Indicator...  3" or 5" with selsyn

Control Box...  similar to standard one, but with L-R switch.

Modified harness.

I'll post the numbers, if I can turn them up.

Obviously the manual loop, spline cable, azimuth indicator, loop control box, and
L-R indicator are not used.
