It was usually used with a two-metre antenna. Range up to 100km. In order to begin the easter egg walkthrough, you need to first get a message from the Russian Army by setting the radio on Main Street to the right frequency. Thats a good suggestion and ive never thought of it before. stream Remarkably enough, the vast majority of these Feb 1942 capacitors tested good. The Japanese conception of radio intelligence is illustrated by the following quotation from the 6th Communication Unit Secret Order No. We are now at a point where the surplus WW2 electronics should no longer be hacked to bits. It was a fine radio for use on cw. of the 348) that my Dad used in the late 40s. Now that everything was in order it was time to try the radio in its final configuration. It operated in the 23,000 to 24,950kHz (23-24.95MHz) frequency range. I just helped a friend get one working last week. [2], Torn.Fu.g: A HF transceiver. A 1913 aircraft with a radio, at the time considered cutting-edge equipment, had a maximum range of 2,000 yards. The huge, high powered antennas would send out stable, long waves that were able to travel long distances and penetrate intrusions, such as mountains and water. Another system, and the subject of this blog piece, was the F-10 radio-controlled mine. The problem with these crystals was, that frequencies of the radio nets were planned frequencies for day and night time, just for all the 24 hour. SO glad that the seller didnt touch it and you kept it as stock as possible! Air to ground radio communication equipment. It was usually installed in section leader and company commanders' vehicles, to allow them to listen on one frequency while transmitting and receiving on another. There is nothing like powering up a dynamotor . But one might ask, with 28VDC input, how do we get high voltage for the vacuum tube plates? Here is how they did it in WW2: This unit has what is known as a Dynamotor. It operated in the 1,130 to 3,000kHz frequency range with a transmission power of 30 Watts. Reworked to produce the FuG 5 (Luft) variant which was used for air-to-ground communication until replaced with the FuG 7. Torn.Fu.c: A HF transceiver. Range 2km AM voice to 4km CW. Other frequencies involved include 7050 kHz LSB and 3731 kHz. (The \215Special Messages\216 \(Coded Messages\)) It operated in the 23,000 to 24,950 kHz (23-24.95 MHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 10 Watts. Otherwise identical to Torn.Fu.b. endobj (BBC Signal and Sunspots) The Paraset was a small, low-power, thermionic valve CW morse code-only radio transmitter-receiver supplied to the resistance groups in France, Belgium and the Netherlands during World War II. Nice job on the restoration. endobj So my unit has some historical meaning and context. ( Critical frequency, LUF/MUF, Hops e Multipath) The BC-348 receiver was built in large quantities, and covered 200-500 Khz, plus 1.5 to 18 Mhz in 6 bands. It operated in the 1.87 - 3MHz frequency range. The contract for this run was #74812 dated June 29, 1940, demonstrating the ramp-up in war materiel purchasing/production in advance of Pearl Harbor. 76 0 obj Unit must be made fully operational to original specification. Macona: The 1940s also came to be known as the Age of Golden Programming for radio shows. This would be the first time that the Government had ever used this method on a big job (Woodbury, 1946: 52). With good resistors, good caps, a working dynamotor I then moved onto the tuning mechanism. This test will show if a cap is functioning as a cap and as specified. The major difference between German Army tank sets and US Army tank sets was the American use of FM for the high-HF/low-VHF bands. Tower up to 50 m. Transmission power 3.5 watts. It spun up like a 1950s jet engine! At Midway Wildcats, like Devastators, took very heavy losses. endobj FWIW according to the Tarrant ORB , 116.1mhz was the guard freq worldwide in 1946(That was DSB-AM- Amplitude Modulation). As an aside, this included radio-controlled tanks. Formed the base design of other units. 53 0 obj It operated in the 23.11 to 24.01 MHz (24100 to 25000kHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 5 Watts. John in Texas. The units of the T series were "backpack"-style mobile equipment. ESR is an abbreviation for Equivalent Series Resistance, not Electrostatic Series Resistance. Radar beacons to identify the aircraft as a friendly (identify friend or foe, or IFF). No replacement of any components whatsoever. Or both? Channel 2 8000 CPS teletype. Newer computer modeling is also used. I applied 28V and, carefully with my finger, pushed the armature on the 28V side of the dynamotor to coax it into operation. Receivers use a single-conversion heterodyne architecture similar to that of big wood console radios of the era. The only exception for me is that historical books and papers should be preserve, so we can know what has preceded us. Within the VHF aviation communication frequency range, the most commonly used frequencies and their corresponding allocations include: Frequency. With this increase in appropriations the Contractors also needed to expand their resources and invited in two new private companies, the Morrison Knudsen Company, Inc. and the J.H. It had the rare 12 Volt dynamotor so I could use it as part of a mobile setup in the car. I like old military shortwave radios. Near exclusively AM mode. I can confirm 30ish mhz, as I used them in training. It is not easy hooking-up military surplus radios because they typically use multi-pin multi-use connectors for power and other controls. (BBC Messages) Channel 2 8000 CPS teletype. 28 secup 2 yr. ago I can confirm 30ish mhz, as I used them in "training" 16 NeuroG 2 yr. ago Of course, they called them megacycles, rather than MHz.

A compromise has to be made you can either leave a radio totally original, OR you can have it working to its original specification. The receiver was not too sensitive, and tuning was jammed up at the higher frequency ranges on the dial. 57 0 obj I have a couple stock R-2x series receivers (navy version) and BC series (Army version). DMG 3 K: Truck-mounted. By 1940, the Naval communication system included technology capable of high, medium, and low frequencies that could send signals out to all corners of the globe (U.S. Dept. MUF: Maximum Usable Frequency MW: Medium-wave SW: Short-wave VoACAP: Voice of America Coverage Analysis Program 4.2 Overview Radio propagation is the mechanism by which the EM waves (also known as radio waves) are transmitted, or propagated, from a point on the earth to another directly or through various layers of the atmosphere. Naval radio communication played a vital role in World War II efforts and Hawaiis defensive installation. Copyright 2022 Friends of Ha'ik Stairs. It was used with various antenna ranging from 1.8 to 9-metre antenna. FuG 17: Designation for a Torn Fu H transceiver. I put them back into place and the tuning unit was good as new. More to the point, how might the workers themselves reach the top of the ridge (Wainwright, 1997). 61 0 obj It was used for by reconnaissance elements for intercommunication. Range up to 100km. It operated in the 23-28MHz frequency range. (Looking at you, [MisterM]!). (Critical frequency) Building for war:Contractors, Pacific Naval Air Bases. Range up to 50km. It operated in the 24.1 to 25MHz (24100 to 25000kHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 5 Watts. It wont be factory original but will represent the era. Panzergrenadier units. It was at this point that I shut it down, this radio wanted to work and all I had to do now was clean her up and fix a few things. It was used on most of the larger aircraft in the war. https://mapsairmuseum.org/what-constitutes-a-radio-on-a-wwii-era-bomber/#:~:text=The%20predominate%20command%20installation%20during,5%20command%20series%20was%20used. I used to be all about modding things to unrecognizability but that was when new gear was so much more expensive. Spaceborne altimeters generally use frequencies in the 2-18 GHz band while scatterometers generally use frequencies between 5-36 GHz. If the vast majority tested good, why did you have to replace all but three capacitors? Known for being one of the first hand-held models, over 130,000 SCR-536 units were used to help conduct many important missions, including the famous invasion of Omaha Beach in Normandy. Octal tubes were used as the active devices and the operational frequencies did not exceed 20 MHz, which was considered a high frequency for the mid 1930's. This radio gear was light-weight for WW2. Operating on the 500 - 560MHz band, two channels. photo right . Transmitter power 1 watt. (Sky-wave propagation) Range approximately 10km with Cw and 3km with voice. FuG 11: A medium-wave transceiver (receiver/transmitter) used in command tanks. FuG 6: A high-band HF/low-band VHF transceiver. endobj endobj It operated in the 36.67MHz frequency range. Power 22 V AC 50Hz 300 VA. Rudolf - DMG 3 G: 'Heavy' link. But if you have an old frequency generator also marked in cps, 3. It's so enigmatic, it's as if it was designed with conspiracy theorists in mind. WWII Before the dawn of the Second World War, radio has become a common means of entertainment and information. By the end of the war, the Hellcat had a 19:1 kill ratio over Japanese aircraft. I found mine at the Dayton Hamvention many years ago for $10. << Logistics were quickly decided upon and offices began to function. The Army had three major and several minor radio installations. 1. Usually they used 30.xx MHz area frequencies (low band, radios close to 10 meters) AM mode usually. Torn.Fu.d2: A VHF transceiver. As it operated on the same band as the FuG 5 it allowed them, for example, to listen to the regimental command net while talking to the subordinate units at the same time. By the winter of 1940 Congress began to understand the full impact of the Pacific turmoil and approved a bill that included $31 million specifically for the Pacific island bases. All paper/wax capacitors were fine. In my experience, the dynamotors were often the first thing to be discarded on those sets. Long range radio systems to communicate back to base, typically consisting of an ART-13 transmitter and a BC-348 receiver. Its just too bad that theres not as much to listen to in HF these days, unless one jumps into amateur radio. Big dynamotors explode in total awesomeness if you apply mains voltage to them. To organize this mess and to make a more permanent functional display for the radio I built up a small external switch panel and drilled a hole pattern in it so it would simply bolt to the side of the radio using two of the existing machine screws on the case. Besides if you really want the original experience.. it didnt have 70 year old caps in it 70 years ago! Mine came out of a old sheriffs car. Stephen Chasey liked LIDL PARKSIDE Battery hacks. R1155 frequency range: 75 kHz to 18.5 MHz depending on the model variant. It is a carefully balanced chassis/radio design for weight minimization (these were installed in aircraft after all) while also remaining rugged and able to provide stable operation across MIL-SPEC temperature ranges and intense vibration. I have a Book Scanner that can do bound books. This office would be responsible for coordinating all of the purchasing and shipping of supplies (Woodbury, 1946:68). Eric Steven Raymond Naturally their foray into military-technology innovation affects the way defense satellites are designed in the next half-century. FM radio broadcasting from 88 MHz to 108 MHz operates in the VHF frequency band. Amazing for resistors built before February of 42. To preserve this historic treasure my rules of restoration were: These were not easy rules to follow because, as we know, the first step to antique radio restoration is to replace all of the paper and electrolytic capacitors, saving a lot of headache and time. Most places cant scan books without destroying the original unless you pay a fortune. FuG 13: A Fug 6 with two receivers rather than one. Range up to 50km. Bravo! (Episodes of Nazi-fascist violence) Range was approx 46km when using AM voice and 68km when using CW. Fug 18: Group of radios covering 25 - 77.1 Mhz Fug 19: A transceiver operating in the range 3 - 7.5 Mhz. Most times a good proportion of resistors have to be replaced..with modern parts, because if you find old parts of the same type they are all out of tolerance too. Fortunately for me, and unlike solid state equipment, no damage was done. I was one of the youngsters who got an ARC-5 receiver in the mid 50s. endobj Crystals for daytime were the higher frequency ones. endobj Fug 21: A 0.1 - 10MHz receiver paired with a 2.5 - 7.5MHz transmitter. The PNAB was initiated in the 1930s as turmoil was mounting in the Pacific. At the time it was considered one of the largest radio receivers in the world and could receive six messages simultaneously. endobj Original vintage : 1941 Primary mains power: 12 or 24 VDC Variants :R1155A, B, C, D, E, F, L, M, and N. Valves: 10 T1154 frequency range: 200 KHz to 16.7 MHz depending on the variant of the transmitter. Yes, the rolled paper/wax seem to hold up forever unless electrically or physically abused. All caps were open-circuit as far as my DVM was concerned (unfortunately DVMs are not sensitive enough for a proper leakage test, more on this later). And at the other end, the magnetron was developed allowing high power microwaves, mostly for radar. Old resistors tend to increase in value over time. The BC-604 has a drawer with room for all the crystals for its frequency range. They used radio frequencies from 15 kHz to 33,3 kHz. As with every other aspect of the entertainment industry, the government had a firm grip on radio stations, which led to censoring many of their programs. It operated in the 23,000 to 24,950kHz (23-24.95MHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 10 Watts. From this information shown on the navigators screen, a course to the target or as home run could be plotted. KL.Fuspr.d: A VHF transceiver. Channel 1 Voice or 5500 CPS teletype or three channels teletype. Cheers, W7PYX, Please be kind and respectful to help make the comments section excellent. Comparable to the American SCR-508 tank radio, which covered a similar frequency range (20-27.9MHz) at 25 watts. (LUF \046 MUF) Given the changes to the tuning unit I realized that I had to do a full alignment. Military radar band nomenclature is widely used today in radar . << /S /GoTo /D (subsubsection.4.4.4) >> Long-distance ham radio communications began in the 1920s. It was usually used for communication with a Fug 8 in the same installation. 2. endobj One more item was needed to give the Pacific fleet full striking power: absolute certain means of radio communications with headquarters at Pearl. Nice restoration. With that said, ESR testing is useful for testing the electrolytic power supply capacitors in tube equipment. Anyone have some cool facts to share? endobj However, The radios would probably be near identical to CBs in their function, key differences being Freq Range, power- ect. The CPNAB had an interest in Haik Valley as soon as the war broke out. 1940-1949 IT'S THE OLD STORY: A glamorous movie actress and a brash avant-garde composer get together to invent and patent a device that controls torpedoes by radio. FuG 10: A medium-wave transceiver (receiver/transmitter) used in command tanks. In the US, CB is 26-28 MHz, just below 10m. The SCR-584 operated in the frequency range from 2.7 to 2.9 GHz (known as the S band) and had a parabolic reflector antenna with a diameter of nearly 6.6 feet (2 metres). I wonder if the Nazi's used Hertz? Very impressive! noun. Pomeroy and Company, Inc. On July 11th, 1940, a new bill was approved (Woodbury, 1946:140). (BBC Medium Wave and Short Wave Broadcasting) 30Mhz+ is used by the government to this day, along with other PMR Licensees. With the receiver aligned I tested its sensitivity. Feldfu b1: Pioniere 90-110Mhz range 1.5km. 45 0 obj After the war the codes were declassified and Ka band and millimeter (mm) were added. 65 0 obj FuG 12: A medium-wave transceiver (receiver/transmitter) used in command tanks. In Java there had been successful experimentation by the Dutch of such a facility using cables strung between two mountain peaks (Woodbury, 1946: 350). << /S /GoTo /D (subsection.4.1) >> Electronic warfare receivers to detect enemy radar signals. Shipboard antenna modeling uses brass models in a lead "sea". The project was one of hundreds that were completed under the coordination and leadership of the Pacific Naval Air Base (PNAB). And literally hundreds of them reside in museums. One minor nitpick from the writeup F4F refers to a Wildcat, whereas a Hellcat uses the F6F designator. /Filter /FlateDecode Whrrrrrrrrrrr.. After about 30 seconds the Whrrr sounded slightly bogged down, loaded down actually, by the vacuum tubes warming up and drawing current from the 250VDC output of the dynamotor. Which one was this radio used it? Power 220 V AC 50Hz. Radio . The radio could have been used in both. Could be used on the move with one man carrying the transmitter/receiver and the other the battery/power supply and handset. Everything from receivers to transmitters that ran on low voltage DC busses used dynamotors to generate the 200-1000V, or more, needed for operation. The b version was used by the infantry until they changed to the 'c' model radio in another band. Drop me a note off line and I may be able to help with the scan. BETWEEN WW1 AND WW2 After the WW1 scientists continued researching of underwater radio communication. For general aviation, 122.75 is the official fixed wing air-to-air frequency designated by the FCC and FAA (and 123.025 is for helicopters). This wasnt restoration though, it was trying to get the last few cents worth of service out of ancient crap for as little additional investment possible. Sturmartillerie units. endobj Channel 2 6000 CPS teletype. On this Wikipedia the language links are at the top of the page across from the article title. Nice work on the restoration. The British broadcaster is turning to frequencies that still work during a communications blackout. Octal tubes were used as the active devices and the operational frequencies did not exceed 20 MHz, which was considered a high frequency for the mid 1930s. It operated in the 27,000 to 33,300kHz (27-33.3MHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 20 Watts. A cable linked the two men together. I also got a lot of use of the BC-453 low frequency version as an improvement to my Hallicrafters receiver connecting it to the 455 Kc IF to take advantage of the low IF (85 Kc) to give improved selectivity. endobj L.I.N.Y. . and deployed operationally in 1941 in the "Great Patriotic . The CBY-46104 covers 1.5-3 Mc either AM or CW (it can also tune in SSB in CW mode), made by the Aircraft Radio Corporation of Boonton N.J. in February 1942 with SN# 1777. endobj A technician who modifies or hacks a radio to transmit on frequencies beyond its usual design parameters. endobj When the contract was finally terminated, December 31, 1943, the total construction and cost amount of their contracts was over $692,000,000 (U.S. Dept. By 1936, 4 million French citizens possessed a radio in their homes, with a choice of three main stations (Tour-Eiffel, Paris-PTT and Radio-Paris) as well as smaller private and provincial stations. It operated in the 1,130 to 3,000kHz frequency range with a transmission power of 30 Watts. endobj (Overview) 9 0 obj Short wave was available on many, but by no means all, pre-war consumer radios. .5 Watt output AM voice and CW. The Submarine Base at Pearl Harbor, established in 1919, found itself at the forefront of war operations for the Pacific during World War II. The GEE MkII was the main navigation system used throughout WW2 in Europe. Operating on the 1250 - 1390MHz band, two channels. Radio: Long haul communication was primarily HF (High Frequency) radio 4,000 to 30,000 kHz giving ranges up to 3,000 or more miles. Air Traffic Control (Towers and ARTCC's) 121.3 MHz. One of the first tasks was building the Operation Office in Alameda. I bought it from a fellow in a wheel chair who had a shed full of surplus electronics. Used at the battalion to company level of the Panzergrenadier. Very cool! It operated in the 2.5-3.5MHz frequency range. To check each cap I had to remove each of them from circuit, one at a time. Fug 20: A 0.1 - 7.1MHz receiver paired with a 1.1 - 3MHz transmitter. 8 0 obj Which Gen Set Manual do you have? .15 Watt output AM voice and CW. On May 25th, 1939 Congress passed an appropriation bill providing 63 million dollars for Naval Air Bases. You might enjoy this video on reconditioning a WW2 aircraft radio that was converted to civilian use. Long range transmissions were done in Morse code to keep the radios as simple as possible and to maximize their effective transmission range; a series of beeps is much easier to understand than voice. Feldfu c: 130 - 160MHz infantry. Testing capacitors with a DVM in resistance mode will show which are short-circuited but it will not reveal the leaking capacitors that are only leaking ever so slightly (e.g. Transmission power 0.15 watt. Aircraft used a variety of frequencies. P-47s and all other USAAF fighters operating from the UK would have been fitted with the SCR-522-A VHF radio operating between 100-156 Mcs. ( Introduction) I made a lot of contacts on it. It consists of a few dials and a very sensitive Magic Eye tube which will deflect leakage is detected. Most radios need every paper capacitor replacing, otherwise the leakage in them just destroys the resistor droppers, or blows up something else. Range 1.5km. It led to my career in electronics. << /S /GoTo /D (subsection.2.1) >> << /S /GoTo /D (subsubsection.4.4.3) >> The nice thing about tube gear is that when the power is turned off the tubes present an open-circuit and therefore you can test resistors reliably in-circuit without removing them. ( Voice of America Coverage Analysis Program \(VoACAP\)) Your painstaking dedication to detail and historical accuracy means that the next caretaker of this radio will still have plenty of historical context surrounding each of the individual parts, construction, etc. Some radios are pre-programmed to repeater channel frequencies, and some will need to be . The chances of doing that without replacing any components is probably around 1% for radios of this vintage and I have done dozens of them over some 26 years. 121.500 MHz. Tripod mast or 11 m mast. This radio gear was light-weight for WW2 standards, the CBY-46104 weighs only 6 lbs and is made entirely from aluminum. Sadly, it disappeared in one of my folks moves., Did it occur to you, that is maybe why they moved as often as they did? It was used by the observers to communicate with the armoured unit leaders via their Fug 5 radios. Reconnaissance units later in the war. Michael 2 B - DMG 4a K: Truck-mounted. Tower up to 50 m. Transmission power 0.4 Watts. Chapter 10 discusses the principle of both pulsed and CW radar systems and radar parameters. Range 5km AM voice.[1]. She told me that during WW2 they were encouraged to listen to the common German frequencies, apparently they could usually hear the tank divisions pretty well. 5 0 obj Flavio Moreira has added a new log for Radio Feather X. Keri Szafir liked Resurrecting Old Computer Hardware And Software. Workers hiked up the back side of the cliffs, from the Red Hill side, soon after the attack on Pearl Harbor. The one-way voice link (OWVL) described a covert communications system that transmitted messages to an agent's unmodified shortwave radio using the high-frequency shortwave bands between 3 and 30 . The Role of Radio in Wartime France. I opted to remove the dead electrolytics and keep the old parts in a little paper bag. U-Boats were cramped and had limited power. The dynamotor roared into life but the radio never produced audio. In has been reported that the 7055 kHz LSB amateur radio frequency has been used by Ukrainian and Russian amateur radio operators for some time now to insult each other in a 'radio war', and recently activity has significantly increased. Along with the previously erected Naval station at Lualualei Valley was a naval communications station at Wahiawa, near Schofield Barracks. The Navy believed it possible to use the natural geography to create the necessary height. FuG 3: A low-band VHF receiver. 1 Watt output AM voice and CW. Working towards the same goal, they slowly and stubbornly inched towards a proposal for Pacific Naval Bases (Woodbury, 1946: 65). 4 LiamCH91 2 yr. ago Fug 25: A 2.5 - 27.5MHz receiver paired with a 3 - 16.6MHz transmitter. At that time, the mood of America was one of caution. With the outbreak of World War II, radio communication stations in Hawaii were built as rapidly as all other military operations that combined to make the Pacific offensive.
