I have a Viet Cong radio, kinda like a BC-1000
package except maybe little smaller, i do not have
the BC-1000 like battery box. This was a backpack
am/ cw radio with 1.5 - 6 MHz range. Yes, whip
antenna. Xu has offered a NIB Chinese set which
i think is the same radio. I "think" it uses submini
tubes (but have never opened it up), and i betcha
they're not 1AD4s you could get out of an old
Handie Fone. I think this is the "Type 73" radio.
