Actually, the CRC-7, URC-4, 11, 14 all had a super regenerative receiver, 
and a straight crystal controlled, AM modulated final stage transmitter.

The "A" version of the URC-11 and the PRC-21 were, as far as I know, the 
first use of transistors in Mil Portables. Anybody with any other info on this?
