BC312 Posted March 11, 2013 Share #1 Posted March 11, 2013 Not sure if this is the place to post but i assume US radio's would come under field gear. I have some nice radio sets and wire gear that need just a couple of bits to finish off but unfortunately i have stuff that has the rarest missing bits (typical). EBay is a waste of space as their search engine is crap, only to find that listings have passed by at the time of searching when the listing was active. So i miss out on good bargains ie i missed out on a mint AN/CRC-7 radio with case that went for $57, which i thought was a good deal. So i thought i would find a good ww2 military radio forum that would give me leads to the bits i need and get my hands on other radio sets, a forum of the quality as this one would be great. Do any of the members here know of any good forums? Its a shame this site doesn't have a signals or radio and wire section as communications played a very important part of winning the war, imagine how the war would have ended without radio and wire and any other form of communication. What do other forum members think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLegGI Posted March 11, 2013 Share #2 Posted March 11, 2013 This won't exactly answer your question, but this is a well known local company that has all sorts of WWII surplus. I know they're pretty well known in various radio communities as well. I stopped by recently because I had heard about them for years and was pleasantly surprised with the amount of stuff they have. http://www.fairradio.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC312 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks for the link. I had a look at them and e-mailed them before in the past but usually advertised post war items. I was thinking about visiting some military radio specialists in France as they seem to hold quite a few eye opening surprises to. Still need to find a decent radio forum. Like i mentioned before, shame there's is not a section on this forum. I know there are some radio topics here but not in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgmjsh3 Posted March 14, 2013 Share #4 Posted March 14, 2013 Can't we get them to add a section for Signal Corps equipment? I am extremely digitally challenged, but would not think it would be that hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyCanteen Posted March 14, 2013 Share #5 Posted March 14, 2013 This will have to suffice for the time being. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/forum/1209-radio-communications-gear/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
