Hello all, I am just grasping at straws at this point so please forgive me if this is not the right place for this. I am a firefighter here in NC and I collect and display vintage/ older two way radios and dispatch consoles. Most everything that I own is in working condition even if it can't be used due to narrow banding restrictions. I just really like the old radios and consoles.
I ran across something on Ebay that I purchased and I am hoping that someone can help me with manuals or schematics or just information in general. The item is a Link Radio Corp Type 2442 desk top console. Probably from the late 40's/early 50's. The chassis is tagged: Radio receiver-transmitter type 2365-ED 2. it is removable and held in place in a mounting bracket by two thumb screws. I have been told that the chassis is possibly a mobile unit adapted for base use. There is a power supply that plugs into the chassis via a large 12 pin rectangular plug and the front controls on the console plug into the chassis by a 9 pin round vacuum tube type plug. I have tried to research this radio on line but there is almost no information on Link radios. From what little that I can find it appears that these old Link Radio units are pretty rare and Fred link was pretty secretive about his products. I know this is not amateur radio equipment but I am hoping some has some type of info on this radio. Thanks in advance for any and all help.
