[Milsurplus] re GRC-3 prototype photo

[Hubert Miller]

I noticed in "FM" magazine from Feb. 1949, p 13, the article "What the SCEL
is doing". It talks about the Signal Corps

Engineering Laboratory with staff of 2500 working to develop new equipment.
The article is mostly of the lab and 

employees and actually not of real high interest, but it does have one photo
of the GRC-3 in the back of a truck, in

a 4-unit rack. Looks like 2 PS's, one RT-? and one R-?    The transceiver
itself has a round meter and the channel

controls are like X's with a large circular backing, interesting differences
from the production RT-67 68 69. I know this

isn't much to go on, but i am wondering if this photo or similar is
available online. I don't have equipment to scan it

so i can't post it here, assuming the list even allows images. I was
thinking of donating my "FM" magazines to 

americanradiohistory.com where i have sent many of my magazines, as they
don't have this copy plus several others

i have - but - i am not entirely happy with their photo scans. If ever i
wanted to do something with the image on

my own, i'd have to rely on their scanned image and possibly limited
quality. So what i am asking is, is this or similar

photo of early GRC / RT-6x radios already out there to access ? 

I also noticed the copy for Aug. 1945 has an article on FM links in North
Africa campaign. 

 

Re the radar manuals i have, i have several large manuals for Navy ship
radar and i think, some kind of large 

instructional book on the SCR-568 ( ?, anyway, of that era. ) I do NOT have
a list of them yet. I was working

yesterday on finding homes for some other paper and it occurred to me that i
have some radar manuals that are

large and heavy and not particularly my main interest at present, and you
can rationally only take on so many projects.

I have enough to read and study and shouldn't take on projects whose start
date recedes into  the infinite future. 

tnx
