[Milsurplus] "Great War" Radio Usage (And Surplus)

[Bruce MacMillan]

The British Royal Flying Corps & Royal Naval Air Service had been using 
airborne spark sets since 1914. The RFC used them mainly for artillery 
spotting & the RNAS for submarine spotting.
The publication "Wireless for the Warrior, Compendium 1" gives good 
coverage on the British sets.
