More information on this radio set.

 R-354
Which is a smaller radio than the R-143 It is a radio possibly with
burst code transmitter inside. It is not a type of FM radio in common
use. Possibly it compounds speech and shoots it thereafter, but I am
unaware. It's quite obsolete now, having entered service in 1982 or so.
Maybe it acts as a scrambler for speech unintelligibility. Guess, it's
because of several plug-in units, maybe they should be changed depending
upon what task the set is to perform during and prior to an action. Most
likely it was used by the Spetznaz.
