Number 42 is a TechRad T-350-XM, one of the finest transmitters used in WWII.
It has a pair of 813s in the final stage, a very wide range antenna coupler in the top section, and is modulated by a pair of 811s.
It used an external mic preamp in a separate box somewhat like the BC-610.
It includes a very stable built-in VFO. Power supply is in the bottom section and is not obvious in the photo. Power supply has two chokes in it, one a swinging choke. That choke failed in mine and I replaced it with a standard choke. Uses 866 mv rectifiers, which I thoroughly despise. I replaced those with 3B28s.
I got a brand-new one through MARS and loved it. I gave it back to MARS when I left Missoula, Montana in about 1979.
The state MARS director traded it to a member in California for a B&W T-368.
I would rather have had the TechRad. I sure wish I still had it.
I sure hope that whoever gets that appreciates it. I heard that most of those manufactured went to the Brits in Africa and were mounted in trucks as part of a mobile comm station.
