A longshot paid off! I have my BC-375-E transmitter repaired, and I'm heading to Moffett Field to install it in the Collings Foundation's B-17 on Monday/Tuesday. 

Taking the PE-73 dynamotor, spare parts/cabling, maybe the BC-348-R receiver. It'll be a challenge!

Once the install is tested, I'll be in Stockton June 1-2 running it airborne as part of Collings Bomber Camp if all goes well! They plan to have a ground station and may try air to air with the command sets they have. They'll be flying their B-24 Witchcraft, and a Harpoon torpedo bomber. 

I plan to operate on 3983, the MRCG Saturday net freq. More info later regarding sked and possible freq changes. 

What an adventure!

Cheers!
