[Milsurplus] Ham mods using the scientific method (longish)

[Hue Miller]

Eric, what was the database going to be? 
If a general catalog of mil electronics, that would be the hard way to do it.
( But, i'm not sure there is an easy way. Maybe to use some sophisticated OCR software
device and (somehow) automatic databasing? But it seems F. Chesson and maybe others
have pretty well sewn up the database already, although all that exist online seem to have
omissions and errors. 
The 194? flyer with the ARB price at $49.95 - i wonder how they arrived at the price? For an
SWL or even Novice ham, even a lowly S-38 would have been more usable - i think.  Every
surplus catalog of course had its overpriced favorites of the store and then some fair deals
which gave value for money. Even R.E. Goodheart.  This same catalog had ART-13 for $200
even, which maybe means someone other than Joe Ham was in the market.  -Hue
