[Boatanchors] Receiver Antenna Input Question

[Carl]

Actually, what a good part of the problem was when they used several 
hundred Kenwood TS-830's and T2FD B&W antennas for both phone patches 
and some forward deployment.

It was a communications foul up as the Army has plenty of desert 
training right in the USA plus Israel for information sources.
