in regards to the german U-Boats requiring a cryptologic team....
keep in mind that the german uboats had Enigma code machines on board.

Hi Pete - I had that problem with 6DJ8's which are high gain audio tubes 
on the TV-7 and a couple of Hickok testers. Have not heard of that with 
any octal tubes so maybe something else is wrong with your tester

Dan Nelson, a friend who repairs and rebuilds TV-7's puts ferrite beads 
on the leads going to the sockets and that solved the problem.

Cheers and 73,

If German U-boats waited off the Eastern Coast of USA,
they were possibly close enuff to monitor harbor
communications in the MF band. I would wonder why to 
a  U-boat's cramped quarters would be added a 
crytologic team, when the heavy lifting could possibly 
be done back at Kriesmarine headquarters and transmitted
to the subs, as already were information on sightings, 
directions to rendezvous with convoys, and so on.
Also i note that waiting offshore, U-boats were within 
radio range of the 20 watt transmitters used by at least
2 radio teams, one in Quebec and one in New York 
state, however i do not know how long these teams 
operated before being rolled up. ( I have the radio sets
used in these 2 locations. )  -Hue Miller K7HUE

Why not pair your new BC-342 with the ART-13 or are you shooting for total
authenticity?  
If the latter, the only transmitter that comes to mind would be the BC-325, a
very rare bird and 
larger/heavier than the 610.  If you're willing to cheat a little you
could pair your 342 with a 
BC-191 which normally ran along side the 12 volt BC-312 in various SCR-***
configurations.  
The 13 is a much better transmitter, though.

As mentioned in a prior post,  I've acquired a BC-342-N.   I'd like to
get a military transmitter to run with it.  I know the BC-610 was the
mate for the 342, but that's out of my price range,  so I'm open for
ideas on a trade,  plus or minus some cash etc.

I have a pair of ART-13's on the pile for restoration,  and I don't
need both of them.   The ART-13 up for trade can be viewed at

included.
