Ah, more to add to this discussion.
A while back I received an email from a gentleman named Brian. He is working on a book about improvised radios built by servicemen during WWII and later.
Attached you can read the intro letter, accompanying questions to vets, and a story from the New York Times on June 25, 1944.
Brian, I hope I provided you with some info for your book, by introducing you to several veterans I know. Good luck!
If anyone can contribute to his book, please get in touch with me. Thanks!
