Hi Don,
I just acquired the manual for the generator and distribution switchboard for AGP14 & 15. It's yours if you want it.

Is this the ebay item I E mailed you about Al? Nice to see you got it. I was going to bid on it, but felt you would benefit from it more than I might.......

I could not determine what technical data this manual contains that can be applied to PT boat #305 from the eBay listing.
I have a Capitol Engine Co. operating and maintenance manual for the aux generator plant. We are using it to manufacture the aux generator control box. Do you know if this manual covers the old style control box? Like the old style wiring diagram?

I doubt it, as this is for a converted LST. However, I'll look tonight and put up some illustrations from it so you can tell whether it applies.

Hello Al:
Yes thank you for thinking of the museum. Hopefully you get a chance to visit the PT musuem at Battleship Cove this year. I would like to review some of the projects were currently involved with and get some feedback.
