Never heard of it, Marty - thanks for posting. Sounds like a good
flick, especially considering the cast.

Watched 12 O'clock High over the weekend for the umpteenth time and
noticed something I'd never seen before: a set of RAX triplets on the
table at Pinetree HQ. BC-34* on left side, triplets on right. Comes up
in the scene right after the guys are in the officer's clubs singing
'Deep in the Heart of Texas' and get alerted for a mission, an hour or
so in.

Of all the times I've watched it, I'd never seen them before. Still
hope to find a set someday, free of hacks, complete with the
dynamotors, rack/mount, control box, unobtanium connectors and so on.
Hey, one can hope, right?  Meantime I can drool over Mike's setup on
AAFRadio....
