I recently acquired an artifact from NASA labeled "Screen Assembly, Communication" and need some help identifying it and would love to know where it might have been used in the program. Etched in the screen is:
Screen Assembly, Communication
MDAC-E P/N 73T240017-1005
MFR Wintec 21550
MFR P/N 9-835
S/N 2
(Serial numbers for set are 1, 2 and 3.) Thanks for looking! — Trey Elsik

Just a quick observation - MDAC is McDonnell Douglas Astronautics Company.

Thanks, it seems the MDAC had been contracted out by NASA during Mercury and the Gemini Programs.
