I love the ice photo, and you look very explorery!

Thank you!

Cool about the gyro compass. Hope you can get it working!

We're hoping, too! We have the schematics and an original manual and will run some experiments this week. The amplifier as I understand it is kaput, but it came with a repair log from Trans-Canada that was maintained from 1950 to 1958 and I want to find out if it tells me what kind of plane the compass was in at that time. What we have is probably two of them composited in any case; the contract numbers are different. The indicator and one of the transmitters still have the original seals on them.
