Anyone got photos of the Harvard or T-6G position light flasher?

Thanks,

Is this the one you're referring to?

It's the upper/lower position light switch with morse code key on our Harvard Mk 2A electrical training panel.

I apologize for the quality. The photo was cropped from a larger one. If this is what you're looking for, I can get better photos but I won't be able to post them until Monday. (I'll be at Thunder Over Michigan all weekend)

Hi RCAF 100:

Thanks for your participation, but no that's the id box. THe position light flasher, flashes the nav lights, while the id box allows morse code communication w/ tower/formation/ground crew via 2 flashable or steady lights.

Okey dokey. Then it must be just on the T-6G, since both the Harvard Mk II and Mk 4 nav lights are just on or off. No flashing.

No, it's in the Harvard MK4 Manual. According to the manual the lights continously flash, there's no option to make the flashing a steady light.
