[Milsurplus] USS Estes Radio Room Photos 1955-68

[Nick England]

For your viewing pleasure, I've created a page with photos of the
communications spaces in USS Estes AGC-12 from 1955-68.
Estes was an Amphibious Force Command Ship so had extensive
communications facilities including air control and a USMC tactical
communications detachment. Photos aren't great (scans from cruise
books) but show an interesting variety of gear and progression over
time.
Photos in 1968 show RBA, R-390A, URC-32, and R-1051 receivers in
use....How's that for a technology span?
