[Milsurplus] Crosby 166 receiver ?

[Nick England]

A dial marked for fur trading stations of the Hudson’s Bay Company. There
must be an interesting story there!
Crosby merged with Teletronics and then crashed in 1961 when the FCC chose
the Zenith/GE FM stereo multiplex system over Murray Crosby’s system.
Assets ended up with Mars Electronics. I have an AN/FRT-17 transmitter made
by Mars. But they folded before too long also.

Thanks for the link to the manual and photos. I’d never seen this before.

Cheers
