WWII 1942 USAAF Signal Generator I-196-A Radio Receiver BC-1066-A Manual Restricted

Original World War II U.S. Army Air Forces technical instruction book covering the operation of Signal Generator I-196-A and Radio Receiver BC-1066-A, part of Test Equipment IE-46-A.

The title page is marked:

• Army Air Forces Technical Order No. 08-10-131
• Signal Generator I-196-A
• Radio Receiver BC-1066-A
• Manufactured by Philco Corporation, Philadelphia, PA
• Order No. 3348-WF-43
• Published by authority of the Chief Signal Officer
• Dated November 25, 1942
• RESTRICTED

The equipment covered by this manual was associated with wartime radio/electronic test work; surviving documentation confirms the I-196-A and BC-1066-A were used together as test equipment. 

This example is housed in a vintage blue binder and shows age toning, staining, handwritten notes, handling wear, and other expected signs of wartime use. The 1942 date, Army Air Forces marking, Signal Corps insignia, Philco association, and prominent “RESTRICTED” marking give it strong display and collector appeal.

A desirable technical reference for collectors of WWII USAAF equipment, Signal Corps material, military radio, radar/electronics history, Philco equipment, and wartime technical manuals.
