[Milsurplus] ] BC-221 question

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Grif,

It was basically a conversion kit consisting of Case CY-182/AR, Mount 
MT-269/AR and a power cable.  Plus conversion instructions.  The far end of the power 
cable was wired into the PL-103 on the back of the already installed BC-348.  
It carried 24 and 250 VDC to the case.  Inside the case were appropriate 
dropping resistors or ballasts.  The "guts" came from any standard BC-221.  You 
removed the BC-221's case nameplate and calibration book and installed them on 
the CY-182.  You unplugged the BC-221 instrument section from its case and 
plugged it into the CY-182.  I don't recall whether the instructions gave 
disposition instructions for the former case and bag or covers.
