Hi John,

Over the years I've seen various TRC-1 chunks floating 
around.  AN/TRC-1: US radio relay system, providing 1 voice 
channel or four teletype channels, operating at 4.29 to 3 
meters / 70 to 100 MHz. Followed by improved "AN/TRC-2" and 
"AN/TRC-4", and then the "AN/TRC-5" and "AN/TRC-6" with more 
channels. They're crystal-controlled fixed-frequency FM 
sets.  Always struck me a true boatanchors.

Go to http://www.vectorsite.net/ttwizb.html and take the 
"radio relay" link.
