Yes the klystron was the LO on GS, and I honestly belive that it was the same on BS.

I still have my course notes and circuit diagrams from my 1958 GS course! Though since a house move in June, I can't lay hands on them.

WRT Blue Shadow, I never worked on it, but we had a bench at Akrotiri for when 51 came visiting. I remember stories of the heat sensitive paper catching fire on occasions. Were these true or urban myths?
