I see I'm the first to post here, or so it seems. I picked up an old Army Signal Corp transmitter system. I believe I have a transmitter and receiver but not sure just what I have. It's in great shape and looks to be all there exept for an antenna. The small box is a "RM-42" The large (heavy) box is marked "CY-52/TRC-8 I have several good pictures on photobucket and hope someone can put me on the right track to find some info. The photos are here: Rectifier power unit: PP-115A Radio Transmitter:T30A/ TRC-8 Control Unit: RM-42 What is it? What can I do with it and How? Thanks, Rev ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ Colin R Young

G'day Rev, You can either post links to your Photobucket pics using the Image Link tags or e-mail them to me at Bradmail.vintage-radio.com.au and I will embed them in your post. ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ A valve a day keeps the transistor away...
