[MRCA] Zenith Radio ART-13?

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

CQR, CWD, CJP, CWS, CZR that I know of.  I think that CZR was the only one 
to make the transmitter.  None, that I know of, built an ATC, TCZ or 
AN/ART-13.  Same thing happened with the TCS, GF/RU, SCR-274-N, TBX, RBM, RAO, GP, 
GO, TBL, TCK, and...I'm tired of typing.  It would be much easier to list 
those sets only made by one contractor.  The same thing happened with almost 
all Signal Corps sets.

And I would hazard a guess that relatively few if any of the net 
participants were actually operating either an ATC or an AN/ART-13.
