[ARC5] [Milsurplus] SCR-522 Playing.

[kgordon2006]

Well, IMHO, it is a typically British design: not particularly ergonomically arranged and too spread out.It is just plain ugly.However, as you say, it was very important.The ARC-3 and its later developments were better rigs, but, again, IMHO, the 522 started the process.Ken W7EKBSent via the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

    I once described it as "an ugly, black lump of a radio," but I've 
    warmed to it over the years.  Besides- it's arguably the most
    important aircraft radio deployed in WWII.

      I have to say, though, the 522 doesn't look very sexy, like ART-13s or even Command Sets.... LOL
