Hi Zeph , thanks for posting the frame drawing , looks like a non- winch type ?
but I'm sure all the diamensions are the same . Points A-B / C-D / E-F , are reference
points to measure the same . ( ? ) Did you get the radio working for the comand car ?

No problem Kris. Yes, non-winch frame. Only drawing they have in that TM. I would say all of the measurement reference points are the same.

Regarding the radios. I have built the CH60 Radio Cabinet and rebuilt the junction box. All of the components are coming together. I know the receiver works and the dynamotor. The transmitter is another story as it is missing tubes. Everything will look original on this radio command car with all the suppression components like it did from the factory. Had to make a lot of the components myself. Looks pretty cool with the engine suppression equipment. Have photos on the G503. Now actually getting the radios to work is another story. It may be a retirement project in the future, but that will be a few years away. 8)
