I was one of the youngsters who got an ARC-5 receiver in the mid 50s. 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). It was used on most of the larger aircraft in the war. Both the army and the air force made use of the same equipment. The "Backpack" or Torn series and the field or Feld series. This radio gear was light-weight for WW2 standards, the CBY-46104 weighs only 6 lbs and is made entirely from aluminum. Other frequencies involved include 7050 kHz LSB and 3731 kHz. That increased both the gain and the selectivity of the radio. And at the other end, the magnetron was developed allowing high power microwaves, mostly for radar. It operated in the 24.1 to 25MHz (24100 to 25000kHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 5 Watts. The Submarine Base at Pearl Harbor, established in 1919, found itself at the forefront of war operations for the Pacific during World War II. Range up to 100km. Frequency Meters provided a method of accurately measuring either a transmitted frequency or a received frequency of operating radio equipment. I was bemused by these rules of engagement: 1. Air traffic controllers and airline pilots use frequencies between 118 MHz to 137 MHz to communicate. Spaceborne altimeters generally use frequencies in the 2-18 GHz band while scatterometers generally use frequencies between 5-36 GHz. (Multipath) I tweaked the antenna coupling control, they were louder still. (Solar activities and sky-wave propagation) (Tactical Information) [2], Torn.Fu.f: A HF transceiver. Transmission power 0.15 watt. Flavio Moreira has added a new log for Radio Feather X. Keri Szafir liked Resurrecting Old Computer Hardware And Software. The History of RFID. It operated in the 19,990 to 21,470kHz (19.99-21.47MHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 5 Watts. Another system, and the subject of this blog piece, was the F-10 radio-controlled mine. The parasets the British SOE sent to operatives in occupied Europe used low HF, 3-7 MHz. Two weeks ago I was at the Communications Museum in Seattle, and they had a Command Set just like yours, tuned to the Boeing Tower frequency. Rather than having two motors with two shafts tied together (larger units on ships actually used such configurations) this motor is built into one compact unit with two armatures and two sets of brushes. Range 10km AM voice to 40km CW. Main advantage over the FuG 5 was greater range. L.I.N.Y. Took first prize in my category! << /S /GoTo /D (subsubsection.4.4.1) >> It led to my career in electronics. Fug 20: A 0.1 - 7.1MHz receiver paired with a 1.1 - 3MHz transmitter. ( Voice of America Coverage Analysis Program \(VoACAP\)) 68 0 obj Used by anti-tank units. Anthony Rabine has added a new log for OpenStoryTeller. The Japanese conception of radio intelligence is illustrated by the following quotation from the 6th Communication Unit Secret Order No. (Hops \046 Skip Zones) Eric Steven Raymond 40 0 obj People were very hesitant to become involved in another war, particularly if America was not directly involved. (Acronyms) I use that although I have read on the ARC5 collector pages these radios will perform with voltages as I can confirm 30ish mhz, as I used them in training.

DMG 2 T: Pack unit, operating on the 475 - 525MHz band, single channel voice or 800 character-per-second teletype. endobj By the end of the war, the Hellcat had a 19:1 kill ratio over Japanese aircraft. but it probably didnt make sense. It is a measure of the effectiveness of a filter capacitor. Operating on the 500 - 560MHz band, two channels. If only more kit of that vintage was restored and demonstrated, then some of the static aircraft exhibits would at least sound like they were still usable. Something was not right with it, the plates on the large variable tuning cap were literally grinding against each other. So my unit has some historical meaning and context. Frequencies around the 13-18 GHz band is where precipitation radars generally operate. After much deliberation and intensive screening three companies were determined to be the strongest competitors having knowledge, experience, and imagination. % Transmitter power 1 watt. In 1931 land was bought in Lualualei Valley for the purpose of constructing a new transmitter facility. News will be read in English, which the BBC. I can do 36-inch wide scans and prints from a plotter if needed. Walkie-talkies even inspired a major cell phone network. RFID - Radio-Frequency Identification - uses electromagnetic fields to identify and track objects which carry either a passive or active tag. I had about 25+ years ago picked up this old WW2 4 cyl generator a PU-35/U , remember it had about 8 hours on the hour meter, it might have about 9 when I got it I fired it up, had it outside in a box, would like to get rid of it if anyone would be interested, can send some pictures. Radio Saigon was designated to carry anti-British broadcasts to India, backed up by similar programs emanating from transmitters in Singapore and Bangkok. At one time (1976) I had it mounted in my 65 Datsun (named Ziggy), and used to work CW on 40 meters with headphones on and a key strapped to my leg. More information including downloadable manuals here; http://radionerds.com/index.php/SCR-522 Anne Member for 14 years 3 months The Wildcat was completely outclassed by the Zero, which enjoyed a 12:1 kill ratio over American planes at the beginning of the war; with the exception that the Wildcat was amazingly durable. 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. Channel 2 8000 CPS teletype. << /S /GoTo /D (section.3) >> There is something I dont get though: I found that all but three of the metal-can-sealed wax and paper caps () and the electrolytic caps needed to be replaced. stream Dynamotor worked perfectly, just like new again! Which one was this radio used it? No ham has ever laid a soldering iron or a drill bit to it. 20 0 obj I left the original rear power plug in place and found out that miniature banana plugs fit perfectly into the WW2 socketed pins. And yes, Ive restored many WWII radios, and the peanut gallery is always annoying. Torn.Fu.b: A HF transceiver. Mast or tower. Mast or tower. .15 Watt-output AM voice and CW. Radio Communications in World War II Naval radio communication played a vital role in World War II efforts and Hawaii's defensive installation. . 0.7 Watt output AM voice and CW. 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. Sets employing frequency modulation and carrier techniques were developed and used, as were also radio relay sets that used radar pulse transmission and reception techniques and multiplex time-division methods for obtaining many voice channels from one radio carrier. 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. Radio. With all of this I made a neat wire harness to tie it all together. It operated in the 1.87 - 3MHz frequency range. The original contractors were Turner Construction Company of New York, the Raymond Pile Company of New York, and the Hawaiian Dredging Company. There are also other frequencies allowed based on location (Hawaii, Los Angeles, and the Grand Canyon). 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. Like weather frequencies, the Ham net frequencies also vary from state to state. Channel 1, voice or 2400 CPS teletype. It was deemed that the 600 foot tower at Lualualei was not powerful enough to send radio waves of the length necessary for communication in the Pacific. The radio could have been used in both. Or both? Depending on the set a range of communication facilities were available consisting of voice and/or teletype and Hellscriber. Unfortunately, I did modify the chassis to accommodate some kind of tuning knob and vernier in an attempt to slow down the tuning rate for cw. The PNAB was initiated in the 1930s as turmoil was mounting in the Pacific. FuG 16: A HF transceiver (receiver/transmitter) used in the command vehicles of Sturmartillerie units. Lots of good DX. This thing was preserved as good as the day it was removed from its F4F Hellcat. Torn.Fu.c: A HF transceiver. I dont know if they finally all sold out, or everything just got sent for scrap when Soviet surplus and post Soviet cheap optics and gear filled out the surplus pages during the 90s. Range 1.5km. (Introduction) After the war the codes were declassified and Ka band and millimeter (mm) were added. But if you have an old frequency generator also marked in cps, A true restoration, not a replace old carcass with modern guts restoration like weve been so used to seeing. Today surplus stores only have contemporary Chinese-made boots, camping gear, and flashlights. I have been binge watching WWII movies lately and it got me wondering about what kind of radio frequencies where they broadcasting on back then. 29 0 obj The results were actually quite nice. I even used the receiver as a tunable IF in a science fair project experimenting with mixers/converter for 10mhz WWV. This mine was first developed in 1929 (90 years ago!) I was also surprised by the quality of the caps in my WS19. He taught me all about the command rx and tx. endobj Channel 1, one voice channel or one 800 CPS teletype. It was matched with transceiver Fug 16 for use with Sturmartillerie (self-propelled artillery). Infantry. Ground-to-air range 60km AM voice to 80km CW. The German-army-issued infantry radios in two main series. SCR-536 This device was used by the U.S. Army during World War II. Occasionally the shorted Fu designation were used and there were exceptions to both these systems. I was a bit surprised at how the caps actually tested. I got good use of a BC-455, the one that covers 6.0 to 9.1 Mc. Tower up to 50 m. DM 43: Development item, possible none deployed. << /S /GoTo /D (subsection.4.1) >> endobj U-Boats were cramped and had limited power. Most places cant scan books without destroying the original unless you pay a fortune. Everyone is thrilled and amazed to see a dynamotor-powered receiver that is running almost entirely on its original parts and as it was originally built. Goebbels also used radio broadcasts to spread the word of Nazism abroad. Things looked bleak for the Allies after the fall of France and the retreat from Dunkirk, Britain was on the defensive and most people believed that the invasion of England would soon begin. It operated in the 4247.8MHz range. For this radio not one resistor was out of tolerance! Infantry. https://mapsairmuseum.org/what-constitutes-a-radio-on-a-wwii-era-bomber/#:~:text=The%20predominate%20command%20installation%20during,5%20command%20series%20was%20used. A leaky cap will act like a high value resistor, in the many-multi-mega ohm range thereby reverse-biasing the grids of tubes or discharging itself causing it to not function like a capacitor at all. Olek has updated the project titled Fan Controller. From 1936 the German forces started deploying a range of communication links using UHF frequencies to form a point-to-point mesh communication network. The system would also require a transmitter building at the bottom of the valley, placement of anchors at the ridge of the cliffs, wires running from the anchors to the transmitter, and a copper grid system in the valley to assist in conducting the signals. One of the forerunners for this technology was the revolutionary electrical musical instrument developed by Leon Theremin. Drop me a note off line and I may be able to help with the scan. First order of business was to accurately test the capacitors because it was obvious that some were not functioning to spec. 49 0 obj At the time it was considered one of the largest radio receivers in the world and could receive six messages simultaneously. A common infantry set. 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. The BC-604 has a drawer with room for all the crystals for its frequency range. Remarkably enough, the vast majority of these Feb 1942 capacitors tested good. endobj It operated in the 42,000 to 48,300kHz (42-48.3MHz) frequency range with a transmission power of 20 Watts.

I remember visiting a couple of friends (G4EYL and G8LUV) in the 80s, and they noticed some CBers on a ham band. EDIT: forgot to add that nearly all transmitters employed crystal-oscillators (wartime demands actually drove research to make leaps in radio crystal quality). R1155 frequency range: 75 kHz to 18.5 MHz depending on the model variant. If small amounts of current (on the order of single-digit uA) leak through then that capacitor is bad. During a siege on enemy territory, the Aztecs warriors would sound the "Death Whistle" in an effort to cause their . Range 70km AM voice to 200km CW. If run out of trim, I might do a little naughty and just strap a little booster cap across it. FuG 17: Designation for a Torn Fu H transceiver. Unit must be made fully operational to original specification. Receivers use a single-conversion heterodyne architecture similar to that of big wood console radios of the era. 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. My elmer was a B17 radio op. noun. It operated in the 1,130 to 3,000kHz frequency range with a transmission power of 80 Watts. It was usually used with a 1.4 metre antenna. Range was approx 23km when using AM voice and 34km when using CW. At this point in time the proposal for the Pacific Naval Air Bases was being limited to defensive measures. 2 Watt output AM voice and CW. I love seeing the WWII equipment properly restored. At this point I had two toggle switches and a pot with a mess of wire shoved into the rear panel connector pins. One of the tags has Signal Corps U.S. Army , can e-mail me for phone #. Feldfu b: 90-110MHz Used by the infantry used in two versions. Sadly this is no longer the case. (BBC Radio Signal Prediction) The whrrrr was smoother than ever. 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. Unit must run off of its dynamotor, as it was intended. First Responders Interoperable Radio System Team (FIRST) Trunking System Profile. Long-distance ham radio communications began in the 1920s. 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. sorry guys. FM stations operating in the old frequency band were required to move to the higher frequencies and most did so before 1948. Its just too bad that theres not as much to listen to in HF these days, unless one jumps into amateur radio. Identical to Torn.Fu.b with exception of frequency range. 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. Operating on the 1250 - 1390MHz band, two channels. endobj It was used with antenna of either 1.4 to 2.0 metres antenna. Admittedly, OCR isnt going to be useful for photos, diagrams, and symbols, but in most cases even raw camera images will be far more useful than not having the data at all. In fact, using sound to psychologically attack an enemy has roots in the ancient Aztec culture. It was used by armoured observation posts. 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. That would be a good station to calibrate his dial on. [2], Torn.Fu.g: A HF transceiver. endobj It operated in the 1,130 to 3,000kHz frequency range with a transmission power of 30 Watts. The B-17 was the work horse of high altitude heavy bombers when the United States entered World War II. Remarkably enough, the vast majority of these Feb 1942 capacitors tested good. I then moved onto cleaning the Dynamotor. endobj The instrument could be . I followed the instructions from the original service manual, aligning the IF first (using a modern synthesized signal generator to get it spot-on), then the front-end variable cap assembly that I had just repaired. The first decade of FM broadcasting, starting in 1936 to 1946, occurred in the 42 - 50 MHz band. Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate. endobj Fug 1: Also known as Torn.E.b And Pack Receiver b. 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. I think its laudable that he kept the mods and replacements to a minimum. Radios in 1942 were large, power hungry, and expensive. I opted to re-stuff the defective caps by opening the metal cans, extracting the guts, and putting in a modern replacement, then gluing the cans back together. << /S /GoTo /D (subsection.5.2) >> In other words, they were planning ahead for this conflict (an interesting book on this topic, how war production in the US was set up in advance by an executive from General Motors who established GMs global supply chain in the 20s and 30s). The Role of Radio in Wartime France. For high voltage capacitors, the key metric of goodness is leakage. Thereafter version b1 was used by the Pioneers. I am familiar with these radios and have had a few of them in the past, but dont have any now. Was present in almost all German tanks and some other vehicles. I used to be all about modding things to unrecognizability but that was when new gear was so much more expensive. 85 0 obj Frequency License Type Tone Alpha Tag Description Mode Tag; 143.700: M: USAF TB CC/Fuel: Cross Country/Refueling/Delta: AM: Military: 139.225: M: USAF TB Diamond: Diamond Formation BBC revives shortwave radio dispatches in Ukraine, and draws ire of Russia. This was helped by the increasingly short supply of qualified Japanese pilots as well as the Zeros lack of performance compared to the Hellcat. Some radios are pre-programmed to repeater channel frequencies, and some will need to be . Those old radios are fun. Power 220 V AC 50Hz. WW2 Marconi ATR5 Radio Transmitter-Receiver Vintage WWII RCAF CMC Ham Tube Comm. Could this unit have seen some action in the south Pacific? FuG 10: A medium-wave transceiver (receiver/transmitter) used in command tanks. 25 0 obj It was used by the observers to communicate with the armoured unit leaders via their Fug 5 radios. Nice work. 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. FuG 5: A high-band HF/low-band VHF transceiver. Nice work on the restoration. The Navy would choose the contractors it believed competent to do pioneering work under stress of emergency, then pay them on a cost-plus-fixed fee basis. endobj It operated in the 2.5-3.5MHz frequency range. Look . The initial problem was how to build a tower higher than 600 feet. Very cool job! 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. It was a fine radio for use on cw. So rule 1 fails immediately. Axis Sally (Mildred Gillars) Several American Nazi sympathizers worked as broadcasters for German state radio, but perhaps none was as famous as Mildred Gillars. Range 25km AM voice to 140km CW using the nine-metre antenna, the station had to be stopped to use this antenna. No replacement of any components whatsoever. KL.Fuspr.d: A VHF transceiver. Michael 2 B - DMG 4a K: Truck-mounted. Not both. Clandestine Radios of WWII - EEWeb Community Still others operated radio frequency heaters and sealers being used in an expanding number of industries using technology developed during World War II. The G series were still mobile but were intended to form more of a backbone for communications and were intended to remain in place for longer periods than the K. They again used a series of masts up to 50 m high. Those old caps still working is amazing, and a testament to just how terrible the knockoff electrolytic caps are. 4 LiamCH91 2 yr. ago Fortunately these are easy to service, they are designed so that anyone with a flat-head screwdriver can fix them. Finally someone restoring something instead of shoving in a raspberry pi. 57 0 obj Looking back at my own history, its clear that the kids toys were always the last priority in a move. Replacement for Torn.Fu.g.[3]. FuG 14: Multi-radio setup consisting of several separate radios. Channel 1 control channel voice, Channel 2 nine voice channels or p x 3 Teletype. Range 5km AM voice.[1]. Naturally their foray into military-technology innovation affects the way defense satellites are designed in the next half-century. The BC-348 receiver was built in large quantities, and covered 200-500 Khz, plus 1.5 to 18 Mhz in 6 bands. I made a lot of contacts on it. Later, I built some crystal controlled converters and use the BC-453 as a tuneable IF. It was usually used with a two-metre antenna. Range up to 50km. have extremely high DC impedance) at high voltages. ESR is Equivalent Series Resistance and NOT Electrostatic Resistance as you said. Used by the infantry at the regimental and battalion level. Operating on the 2000 - 2100MHz band. It is not easy hooking-up military surplus radios because they typically use multi-pin multi-use connectors for power and other controls. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. There I found a unicorn of historical significance; an un-modified-since-WW2 surplus CBY-46104 receiver with dynamotor. All paper/wax capacitors were fine. Later a simplified version (b2), of lower power (.12w), was used by the Panzergrenadiers.[3]. This receiver is part of a series of radio gear known as ARC-5 command sets, which describes an entire class of WW2 transmitting and receiving equipment for aircraft-to-aircraft communication. Crystals for daytime were the higher frequency ones. Early in 1945, in the Northern Appenine mountains of Italy, T/5 Harvey, a radioman with the 10th Mountain Division, is carrying his WW2 . It was used with a two-metre antenna. One of the first tasks was building the Operation Office in Alameda. Comparable to the American SCR-508 tank radio, which covered a similar frequency range (20-27.9MHz) at 25 watts. magopeter liked Flipper Zero Multi-tool Device for Hackers. Shorter range communication was on 500 kHz almost entirely hand keyed Morse with a range of up to 500 miles. This office would be responsible for coordinating all of the purchasing and shipping of supplies (Woodbury, 1946:68). Which Gen Set Manual do you have? The electrolyics, however, were extremely leaky and did not reform. It was used with the same antenna as the Fug 8. >> There is a Museum ships radio contest once per year, ships will operate CW and AM with the old gear and plug in a modern transceiver to operate SSB.
