Yes, it sure is. :-)

I have an AN/GRC-109  here too. I have worked 35 countries with it on 40 
meters over the years. It is loads of fun!

I also have the hand-cranked genny for it. I mounted that on an old Sears 
exercise-bike frame and added gears and chains to get the correct speed to 
crank the genny. I can almost pedal and send CW at the same 
time....almost...
