[Milsurplus] BC-602-A

[Mike Morrow]

Hi Jack,

All I have is a statement in a SCR-522 manual that explained the reason for
the difference between the BC-602-A and B model control boxes.  No model
designation was given for the variable length antenna.  Maybe it never got
beyond design stage.

I'm taking the liberty of posting this to the list, since there are far more
knowledgable people than I on the list, who may be able to shed more light.

73,
