Subject: Re: WWII fire control 'computers'
Ok, I'll bite. Got a URL? I'm up to the 10th page on google, but nothing
recognizable. --Say, it's not a yahoo group, is it? Looks like there might
be a costal defense group there, but I don't want to hit up yahoo unless
it's really worth it.
> A bit (er, lot!) of a long shot this, but
it's probably vaguely
on-topic...
All questions about fire control computers involve shots...
> Does anyone know anything about the mechanical fire control computers as
used
in second
world war for UK coastal defence batteries?
You might try posting this question to the guys that know, on the
coastal-defense mail list (yes, there is a list for geeks of all kinds).
I can post the question to the list, if you wish. William Donzelli
