[MRCA] SCR-178/179 Query

[Doran Platt]

Bob,   Sorry for the delay...  I'll get the m.o. out to you for the 
manual.  Can you confirm the price for the parts transmitter and 
shipping.  Also... might you have any NE-47 (B8A?)  neon bulbs for the 
GRC-9?  I just dropped mine on the concrete floor.  I have a few of the 
2-pin types but no single-pin neons... had to happen, I guess...
