The RID was the ww2 effort by the US FCC to monitor radio signals for the US government. They did for money and patriotism what we do for fun. The RID story is pretty interesting, to me at least, they did a lot with very little and their ingenuity was amazing. If you like you can dl a pdf history of the RID here:

This is the coolest damn thing I have read in quite a while. I love ww2 history & I love radio so this is ideal for me. I find myself only reading so many pages each day so it will last longer.

Thanks for the post

Same for me.  I love WW2 history, radio, and cryptography.  I've been reading this book during lunch breaks at work.  Thanks to Fansome for posting the link to the .pdf
