I am not a WWII vet but think I remember seeing an LM or maybe a BC221
aboard a
Navy C118 enroute Lajes, Azores in 1962.
I think the way it was used was to tune the receiver, which was something
like
a BC348. You'd set the actual assigned frequency on the frequency meter,
tune
the receiver to that frequency, and operate. The transmitter was an
ART-13, I
think.
Last week at the FAR hamfest in Md. I gave away an LM that was broken, but
neglected to bring the manual. If the recipient is reading this, please
let me
know and I'll ship you the manual.
