We deployed these rigs on the Czech border patrol back in 1965. Before entering the Army i worked for B&W who built these three deck transmitters. My first job was testing the power supply deck, then the speech amp. I ended up in the cal lab before they laid me off as the contract ran out. My Artillery unit in Germany had six of these mounted in huts on the back of deuce and a half trucks. One of the rigs still had the test data signed by me in the travel ticket history pouch.
In 1962 I worked for B and W , we made this transmitter for the US Army as part of the AN/GRC-26 Radio set. I was a 19 year old kid fresh out of RCA Technical Institute. During my years in the Army we used this rig on the West German Iron Curtain border patrol service.
