Hue and all,
The Russian US-9 is further modernized with the 6F7 replaced with a sub
miniature 6U8, all modern components and mine has the vernier dial. Modern
film resistors and good capacitors. Still has the old metal tube lineup and
an 0D3 regulator. I believe that it is based on the R model that was in the
B-29s that were interned after one of the Tokyo raids. Mine was made in
1976. Wonder what the cost was for the Soviets then.
Cheers,
John

All large U.S. military aircraft, when flying over the ocean
or the Great Lakes, were required to guard 500 KC
during "quite times," just like any other "ship,"
and to be prepared to communicate on 600 meters.
