Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum. I volunteer on a Patrol Torpedo (PT) boat restoration. I'm here because PTs used a great deal of aviation systems on board. One of our compass systems is the Eclipse-Pioneer Gyro Stabilized Flux Gate Compass System. We have acquired a transmitter in good condition as well as a master indicator and one repeater (secondary) indicator.

What we are looking for is an amplifier, an inverter and a remote electrical caging drive. The drive used in the PTs was not the same as in aircraft though, it was a CM-1, but we may have to use another type if that is all that we can find.

We've spent a lot of time looking for these parts, and any guidance on where to find them or any that might be available for sale would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

I can help. Email me at taigh@twinbeech.com
