I think Poppop is talking about Kinetichotshot. He's listed in the member list (about page 150) and has a link for his web page. I don't know if his PM is linked with his email, so it may be faster to contact him through his site. I'll try to call him so he can give you a PM, also. Webb

Saw 3 types at Saturn in their Vehicle Acc section.

FYI Thought this was an unusual MV accessory that doesn't seem to have been mentioned before. Seem like it could be a DIY project for some of you in the higher latitudes. http://wardogmilitaria.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=32&products_id=1377

Welcome. Always glad to see another Texas guy. Webb

After looking back through the posts, there may be a desire for more technical info. Here's the data plate photos for that. Webb

Just when you thought that the light set was an urban myth, conjured by P.T. Barnum and on display only in Ripley's Museum...I bring to you proof that it actually exists. Suffice to say that it's taken a bit of wrangling to get this thing from the south Texas home that it had for several years...

Bjorn, PM sent. Deuce, seems that the only imports we have on nurses here are Filipino and Canadian. One can still hope though. For everyone else, there seems to be more field phones available than what I've noticed before. I've also noticed the price going up some. Could this be the...

They may not be a great military find, but I saw them at a local surplus store and got them. Put batteries (D cells) in them and found they work just great. Interesting additional parts and functions. The rotary dial (I'm thinking) is to hook into a civilian phone system if needed, and it has...

Hard to tell on the symbol, but looks similiar to the PsyOps crest. http://www.tioh.hqda.pentagon.mil/branches/PsychologicalOperations.htm

I just read about Rommel's staffcar in the War& Peace Show archive. http://www.warandpeaceshow.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=253&Itemid=88888976#Rommel If a staffcar section is included, I'll delete here and repost there unless one of the Mods does. Webb

So far I've found out that Huey 68-16625 has not been through the boneyard at DM. It hasn't been purchased and given an N number for US civil aviation. I've found no FAA incident reports on it. Although the list from the Vietnam Helicopter Pilot Assn. isn't complete, it's not listed as having...

Well, the power isn't exactly internal. I think this cutaway picture (not to scale) may show the socket and how the post attaches a bit better than the others. I'm infering the design of the post and electrical connection from the socket portion. I think the post will have an indent that the...

Couple of things that caught my eye, not as an expert, just an observer. No plates or stickers tell me that it has not been on the road (probably) for a long time. I think the others are right; it's too rough for the price.

If I have to fabricate, that's the basic consensius for support, but I'm also looking at swivel, and power issues. The silver pip in the center of the socket is the electrical connection, with side contact being a ground. This allows you to remove the spot when not needed by unscrewing the...
