[Milsurplus] BC-375 ops in a B-17 May 27&28th

[Taigh Ramey]

Hello all,

 

We put on Bomber Camp at Stockton Field in California as a fund raiser for
two nonprofits and this year it will be held on the 27th and 28th of May.

 

We were thinking of trying to establish communications from the B-17G to the
ground camp and thought of setting up a BC-375 and BC-348 in the radio room.
I have the gear but I have not gone through or tested anything.

 

What would be best at this late hour would be to find someone with the
experience and or knowledge that might want to help out with this in one of
two ways. Help to get our gear running to install in the B-17 or bring over
your own working set to broadcast from the B-17 while in flight during camp.
I will be flying with the B-17G at Moffett Field (SF Bay Area) during the
week of May 18-23 which would be a good time to set it up and test it. 

 

Do you know anyone who might want to help out? Please spread the word as
this will be a lot of fun and kind of historic as it must have been 50 plus
years since anyone has transmitted from a BC-375 in a B-17.

Thanks,
