Gentlemen,

Tom Brent posted the original message on "milsurplus."  One of the  
items listed is a RAB-4.  The RAB was the US Navy's original shipboard  
superhet.  The partial manual I have from the AWA Museum Library is  
dated 30 June 1931.  This predates the announcement of the civilian  
Hammarlund Comet-Pro and the National RHM/AGS.  I do hope someone will  
have the wherewithal to give this 455-pound monster a proper home.   
I'd do it myself if I could.  See my website:

Regards,
Al Klase - N3FRQ
