Today I donated Jack's (John Barnes Leddy) oldest radio transmitter to History San Jose. This was in accord with his instructions before he died. Here is a picture of the transmitter. As you can see in the picture, it was a Skywriter Defiant high frequency communications receiver produced by Hallicrafters, Chicago. The transmitter is described in this Radio-craft magazine from 1941
