Paging the B-29 FIFI crew. . .

I heard that you're looking for a working BC-348 receiver and dynamotor. I may be able to help. PM me and we'll talk.

(sorry for taking up bandwidth on the general board, but I don't know specifically who to talk to) :?

Dean - here is a link to the contacts page for the B-29/B-24 squadron. I'd call Rick Garvis, the crew chief.

When I stopped by and visited with him a couple of weeks ago he did mention putting in one of the older radios. Hope that helps.

WE have had a a couple of guys who are fascinated with our radios, and are in the process of making the radios on "FIFI work. As Randy suggested contact Rick, and he can put you in touch with those guys, I don't know what they are lacking right now.

Thanks, guys. I'll get in touch directly with Rick.

MODS: you can delete this thread if you like, as it's really meaningless to most WIXERs.
