[Milsurplus] [Boatanchors] Emergency Radio Room

[Steven Syrotynski]

Hi Carl, in the main radio room we have a working TBL and a tcs-13. We 
also have a TDE there which still needs some work. W e do have some info 
on the other room on the ships website, we are just tryng torestore that 
room to as close to original as possible,

Steve
