Gents:

     I received the book "Instruments of Darkness"  by Alfred Price for 
Christmas and finished reading it in a couple of days.  Fascinating read 
about the cat-and-mouse electronic war engaged in by the Luftwaffe, the 
Brits, Yanks and Japanese during WW II.  Especially intriguing was the fact 
that the book describes in some detail technologies that were, at the time, 
TOP SECRET.

     I'm not sure where my family located it, but I had suggested they try 
Barnes & Noble or Amazon.com.  It's well worth the effort to locate it.

P.S.  The SX-28 was mentioned as a receiver that the US used to locate, I 
think, the Luftwaffe's air-to-ground comms channels so they could be messed 
with by our jammers onboard our B-17's.
