But in the summer of 1944, you would not have found any (110 volt
power or US bases) in Europe. The whole point of the unit was to be
a portable radio station, not something you had to build a base around.


I thought France was still on 110 in those days. I've restored some
French sets both pre and post war, some I think were 110 only.
