It was a regular question on the MRGC tech elect section of the Part 1 as i recall.
Every meter at FNC was an AVO 8......i don't remember seeing any other make until the American coast.
In Ft. Lauderdale i had a problem atop the radar mast which required shoreside attendance.
The engineer .....Ex US army who had only ever worked with radar and nothing else.....quite a luxury i remember thinking.....had a hand held solid state mini oscilloscope which had come straight from "Star Trek".
"A different world" .....was my abiding memory.
