      Tom,              I found a page that show a picture of the SRT-14 Transmitter.              I got to learn how to Tune it Up while aboard Navy Air Craft Carriers,       and I fell in love with the Rig back in 1960-62.              After seeing what it looked like again on a web page (below) I thought       about Your Service aboard Submarines and wondered what LF and HF       Transmitter was used aboard Your U Boat back then? If You Can.              I have heard that Radiomen on Subs got their Broadcasts on VLF instead       of HF because VLF RF Signals could be received while the Sub was       submerged.              I thought that in the 1960's they probably didn't use VLF or LF to       Send their Message Traffic to Sub Command, but used HF frequencies by       rising the Sub just below the surface and raising the HF Antenna above       the Water Line to pass any messages they had to Send.              Knowing the size of the SRT-14 I wouldn't think there would be any room       for one on a Sub. ???              Look at the Size and Discription of the SRT-14, SRT-15 and SRT-16 on the       page I found about them and other Navy Gear at:              www.virhistory.com/navy/xmtr-ship.htm              Thanks and 73       NNNN              ...
