Howard L. Walker (W5ZIO) during WWII


The radio is an SCR-131 set, consisting of a BC-148 transceiver, a GN-35 generator and an LP-7 loop antenna. The bottom of the set holds three 1 1/2 volt batteries for filament power and two 22 1/2 volt B Batteries for plate voltage.

My thanks goes to Bill Howard for identifying the equipment. Bill owns a BC-148 of his own which can be seen here.
