Hi Matthew,

Does your group have plans to include a vintage, 40's era set-up at the
site, as well as the more modern gear...?

A receiver like the RCA AR-88 comes to mind, which WAS, indeed, used in the
original Camp X radio room (condfirmed by photos in the lobby of Lear
Seating, which is presently located nearby).
