[Milsurplus] Info on BC-1206C usage?

[Marc Ellis]

To the group:

Needed for a magazine article: information on how the military used the BC-1206 beacon receiver. 

With its light weight, compact design, and ability to run directly off the plane's  28-volt system  without a dynamotor, it's obviously intended for light aircraft. And the manual advises on retrofitting it (mount it in a standard instrument opening using the screws supplied or fabricate a metal strap and attach to the plane at any convenient spot)..

Which planes were these sets typically used on? Were they  ever supplied on certain planes as original equipment? Does someone have a picture of a 1206 as installed in a plane.

Any info or assistance much appreciated!
