[Milsurplus] Allied Radio's 1943 catalog

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

not many home radios made during  war..
funny smecc   artifact story..
 
Motorola had  lots of car radios  during war...
 
no cars being made  tanks being made instead...
 
moto  had   bad  car radio sales but  could  not  build  home  radios..
 
moto  took car radios  put in wood cabinet  with power  supply and BINGO  a 
home  radio
 
and  yes.... we have  one....   one of our  many  ... mysteries at the 
museum!

I was looking at an Allied Radio 1943 catalog last night. I  was surprised 
to see many many components offered. The communications   
receiver selection was a little abbreviated but there were  some Hallis, 
Hammarlunds, and Nationals. There were, not surprisingly,   
no home radios listed. But what gives with the other  equipment? Was there 
some kind of rationing in place, so only certain  approved 
buyers, agencies, allowed to purchase these  things?
