That's an interesting web site.  I especially enjoyed seeing the
"Navy Special Mobile Radio Set Improvement-1" for midget submarine
(5000 to 10000 kHz, 60 watts).

I remember reading long ago a report of a radio set being removed
from the midget sub that swamped on beach near Pearl Harbor.
I've always wondered what one of those looked like.  Thanks!
