Up for sale here is this antique WWII ID-15/APA-1 US Navy Radar Indicator Unit. From what I understand, this would wire into the radar and was basically a remote indicator unit for the radar. This is extremely rare and I can only find a few references to it on the internet, one of which is on a museum’s website. This has an ID plate identifying it as an ID-15/APA-1, showing a “stores reference” of NXsa-62349, and a serial number of 8421: CPR, as well as a US Navy stamp. If you have any information on this, please let me know. Please see my pictures for details. If you have any questions, please ask. I have a number of other collectibles, Magic cards, and vintage electronics listed–feel free to take a look!
