Sorry if anyone was confused. The Rad Lab existed at MIT. My point was that Loomis was doing major work at Tuxedo Park long before he was put in charge of the Rad Lab. Given the high quality of the work Loomis was doing on his own nickel and the fact that he ran the Rad Lab, I don't think it is wrong to regard the Rad Lab as a change in location and a much larger staff. After all, the planning for the creation of the Rad Lab was done at Tuxedo Park in December of 1940.
As you claim expertise in the matter, can you provide or link to a bibliography pertaining to either Loomis or the Rad Lab? I have "The Invention that Changed the World" and one on Loomis, but would love to read more. I couldn't locate the biography of Loomis I have. There is a downside to having a 5000 volume library.
