You have to remember that the Navy, having in the first place far fewer of 
everything than the Army, didn't jump on the "get rid of everything - 
there'll never be another war" bandwagon like the Army did.  In the second place, 
although the Navy mothballed hundreds of ships, they didn't actually scrap 
that many.  And all of the radios aboard ships were mothballed with the ships 
rather than being pulled off and surplused out.
