No.The BIG problem is the control boxes.I thought Mike made that abundantly clear.From his extensive and accurate knowledge, it is completely clear that the entire SCR-274/N system could not possibly have been converted to operate from 12 VDC by any front-line tech. The necessary parts would have been completely unavailable.Therefore, the only possible way this equipment could have been operated in a Jeep is via some source of 24 V power.Ken W7EKBSent via my Samsung Galaxy, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

From what I am gathering from this discussion, the receivers are not the big problem. The transmitters are. Mark D. WW2RDO“In matters of style, float with the current.

How much more stranger can this get...but now a GP-7 Navy aircraft xmtr that runs on 115vac 800cycle and what is probably a RU-17 Navy rcvr. It looks like the dynamotor for the rcvr is under the GP-7. Controls for tuning the rcvr and GP-7 remote on the dash. So it looks like the driver is the radio op.
