[Milsurplus] Mil insulator listing ?

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

SIG 5-1, Index By Type Numbers, is a cross reference between Signal Corps 
and AN nomenclature and the Signal Corps Stock Numbers.  However, you also 
have to have the correct SIG 5 volume to look up the description.  The 
December, 1945 complete SIG 5 (not counting SIG 5-1 and the others) is 14 inches 
wide.  The revisions up through about 1955 take up about another 30 inches 
plus those that I don't have.

I do not know of any photographic directories for parts.  The Signal Corps 
Drawings would suffice, but I've only ever seen a handfull of them.  And 
most of those because they appeared in a few TM 11's.
