                          REMARKS FOR THIS TABULATION

This work does not describe the RU-series of receivers as used in liaison
service (such as with GO-* or GP-* aircraft transmitters).

This work does not describe the SCR-A*-183/-283 series of receivers as used in
liaison service (such as with SCR-A*-185, SCR-A*-187, or SCR-A*-192 systems).

Only receivers and associated components in command set service are addressed.
The expanded set of coils that was issued for liaison receiver service is not
described.

Instruction books for 28 of the 35 listed systems are the source for almost
all of the information provided here.

The instruction books for 7 of the 35 listed systems were not available when
this tabulation was compiled:
         GF-2/RU-3a, GF-4/RU-5a, GF-8/RU-13, GF-9/RU-14
         SCR-AE-183, SCR-AF-183, SCR-AP-183
Alternate sources were utilized for details associated with these seven
systems.  Information from applicable instruction books is welcome.

This tabulation was compiled by Mike Morrow/KK5F, Athens, Alabama, 2014-11-17.
Comments, additions, suggestions, and corrections are welcome.  Please
submit to Mike Morrow, kk5f at arrl.net.

Copyright for written publication is reserved.  However, no copyright is
reserved for use of this material on radio-related websites as long as the
tabulation is attributed to Mike Morrow/KK5F, and any material subsequently
added or altered by others is noted as such.
