OK, You guys got me going. I got off my 4th point of contact and I did the following:

I found the original manufacturer of the Receiver Feet. They are still in business and I ordered a minimum order (50) and they are on the way. When I get them I will be able to get the last of the measurements needed to get the tray's made.

I next found the original manufacturer of the Shock Mounts. They are also still in business and I again made a minimum order (8). They are on the way too.

Next I found some Thumb Screws that I think will do the job and ordered a bag of 25.

So all I'll have left to do once I get the feet on a RCVR chassis and get the measurements completed is get my machinist son to get me a couple of trays made at a tin bender shop and get them primed and painted.

I'm thinking it'll cost me about $200.00 per complete Shock Mount Tray..........

Then I'll have to get off my 4th point of contact again and get that table built to mount 2 RBG's on like they used them in the intercept positions in Wahiawa, Hawaii during WWII.

Thank's for the push guy's......
