[Milsurplus] Mystery Comm stations

[Jim Whartenby]

Interesting photos of equipment.  All of the R-390s are non A radios, a few R-388s and two Hallicrafter R-274s are seen.  Lots of BC-610 transmitters, an FRT-26 transmitter (15 kw HF) and two others I don't recognize, perhaps Navy?  Also radio relay equipment, TRC-24 (100 to 400 mc) and FCC-3 (12 channel carrier telegraph terminal) with a few Model 15 TTY in the mix.  All of the above equipment, except for the R-390s and the two unknown transmitters, are in JANAP 161, thanks Nick.
Seems like a tropical location, prone to flooding since the whole compound is raised above the surrounding antenna field.  No heating ducts noticed in the building either.  One of the cars out front looks like an early 1930s open air touring car! Could it be Cuba before the revolution or perhaps Taiwan? <grin>Jim

I wonder why people argue over the 10% of their differences and ignore the 90% they agree on?
