[Milsurplus] [armyradios] Newsreel - Radar Secrets Revealed

[J. Forster]

WOW!!!  THANK YOU!

The clip shows a number of things, some of which are on the Massachusetts
(the SG).

There is also a brief shot of what I think is a BC-929-A and, even rarer,
there is a bit on the steerable Yagis for the ASB-5 series radars at 01:37
in the film. I've NEVER seen those before! There is also a shot of the ASB
display.

Many thanks,
-John
