[Milsurplus] WWII Radar Scope?

[Peter Gottlieb]

I remember all these cool old radar scopes that used to be around.  The dual 
tube ones, the PPI ones with motorized yokes, the tubes with electrodes on the 
faceplates.  The different phosphors used to fascinate me!  Not just the P7 
radar standard stuff, but the weird ones with the P numbers beginning with 100 
and 200, the oranges, the blue/green, the different decay characteristics.  You 
know, the tubes which had handwritten labels.

The school I was at had gotten a big load of surplus radar stuff to play with 
from DRMO or somewhere and I have never seen such an interesting assortment of 
stuff.  Additionally, we got telemetry receivers in there, radar control panels 
with hundreds of switches and indicators, massive modulators, coincidence 
detectors, boxes of geiger tubes, stuff that looked like it fit in missiles, and 
the usual 390 and ARC-5 stuff.

I keep looking around to see if any of the weird stuff pops up but I guess most 
of that must have been very unique or part of specific projects.
