Help in Identifying radio
#18

Hello Les.  Keep in mind that you will need to use the relatively short antenna that was equipped on the Electra.  Amelia began her voyage with a long wire antenna that would have been much more suited for long distance transmissions, but discarded it along the way because they thought it too cumbersome to extend and roll up.  Take care, Gary
