[MRCA] Navajo Code Talkers

[ROBERT FORTE]

One radio was the TBY, up to model 15, I believe. Regenerative receiver,  drifted a bit. Powered by three power supplies, one dry cell battery pak, one a vibrator pack off a 4 volt wet cell, and one an AC pack for use on ships. I have two, very complete, and will part with one, if anyone is interested.

Unfortunately my time with Peter was quite limited and at the tender age of 89 his hearing was limited, so I was unable to ask him what he used for gear. I did get a nice autograph from him, but still my question is..
