[Milsurplus] BC-221 with noisy tuning

WWV was there when I went into USAF communications
in early 1946.   I don't know when JJY came along
Trivia, but when I aligned the BC-221 I had it out of the box,
a towel wrapped snugly around it, and a long handled
screwdriver.   I don't know if it was a common thing, but the
radio position in the C-47 we played with had a space for it.
Navy had a rack-sized generator in 1948 I used a few times.
