[Milsurplus] GRC-9 Stuff...GN-58...

Back at the first 1996 MRCG,  West Coast Military Radio Collector's Group
meeting (then Military Radio Restorer's Group), in San Luis Obispo Bjorn,
SM5UR, brought a Swedish tactical  radio with gennie mount that could be
hand cranked or bicycled...too cool! The op could pedal and key CW all at
the same time. I bet if he had a monkey he could make a few bucks ~8^)
