PRC-74 loaded whip antenna AS-1887A/PRC-74. This is a 3.5mc to 18mc sectional whip with the adjustable coil load in the second section. All sections are joined by a cable running through them so assembly is a snap. Full whip is about 10 feet tall. Made by Hughes Aircraft Co. Brand new but not in original packaging. Original paint and instructions silk-screening in perfect shape. Color is olive drab. An outstanding HF whip antenna. $40

There are 4 sets: Brandes Matched-Tone in excellent cosmetic shape but with one coil bad, Cannonball Dixie with good cord, el-cheapo metal headband and one non-working side, Tower Scientific Navy Type, looks good but untested, and WLS Special Headset 3000 ohms, dirty with chip in one earpiece, untested.
