[Milsurplus] LR frequency meter and "Couldn't shock mounts be designed to mitigate those problems?"

[Rob Flory]

I'm not sure anyone who has not lived through it can imagine the shock of
firing the 16-inch main battery of a WWII battleship.  I know I can't.

I have been on deck for the ceremonial firing of a 5" gun with a token
charge. It shook every bone in my body.  The charge of a 16" gun fired in
anger is three orders of magnitude larger.  I think most of those shock
mounts bottomed out(and topped out) repeatedly with every firing.

The only reason a TBY might fare better is by being cradled by 150lb of
human flesh.  The one I had stopped working if you looked at it crosseyed.
