I will post a photo tonight. Thanks for the info. In WW2 my dad was involved with a ground approach radar experiment using the radar director for a 90MM antiaircraft unit. The Japanese were shooting down P-61 Black Widow night fighters as they approached dark airfields that were lit up to land. It's likely he used a similar radio for giving pilots landing instructions. As I remember the radar was at the end of the runway pointed down the length and they talked to pilot down. Left--right-- range--bring her up...Info taken from memory since he's gone like so many of our WW-2 vets are.. 73 Tom
