Did the later GRC-10 use a corner reflector?

At one time I had access to several whole sets, but they were less  
the antennas. Like the TRC-1, I just couldn't find any reason the lug  
home things with that freq range.

By whole set, two or three sets of RT's, switchboards, mast sets  
(smashed) cables, the whole shebang, no generators of course. Hmm,  
with the several sets of radios mounts, switchboards and assorted  
convertors, that would have been an MRC-68, wouldn't it?
