Crystal sets for other frequencies were available.

The SCR-522-A provided four crystal-controlled channels from 100 to 156 MHz.

Allegedly the SCR522 was used for &ldquo;dumbo&rdquo; duty waiting for pilot rescue in the PTO, at least on subs, replaced by the AN/ARC-4. Both 140-144mc. Don&rsquo;t know if other uses, but I&rsquo;d guess there were others.
