[Milsurplus] Companion Receiver for Bendix TA-12C

[Mike Morrow]

Here is a listing of all the main components required for a complete
Bendix RA-10DB/TA-12B installation:
RA-10DB Receiver: 150-400, 400-1100, 2000-5000, 5000-10000 kHz
MR-11D  Loop relay unit, part of RA-10DB
MR-9B   Receiver control box
MN-52B  Loop control box
MN-20E  DF loop
TA-12B  Transmitter: 300-600, 3000-4800, 4000-6400, 4370-7000 kHz
MT-53B  MF tank coil
MT-51C  Transmitter control box
MT-31C  Transmitter tuning meter
MT-11B  Morse key
MS-14B  System junction box
MS-18B  Microphone jack box

I have all the above except the last two items.

The TA-12C (vs. the TA-12B) covered up to 12000 kHz,
but lacked any overlap in its three HF channels.
It was thus less versatile for setting multiple
channels for frequencies that were relatively close
together, as most commonly used frequencies of that
era were.  In addition, Bendix did not make a comparable
receiver that covered through the 12000 kHz range of the
TA-12C.  There were several other less common versions.
