If you look back to the beginning of military radio, SCR = set,
complete, radio. There was a lot of military jargonof the same ilk. AN
("Army-Navy) of course came in during WW II and was more explanatory.
"Signal Corps Radio" doesn't cut it since there were non-Signal Corps
radios, believe it or not. And even if you wanted to go that way, SCR
would make no sense, since they were defining a complete set or radio
system, made up of Basic Components.
