[Milsurplus] Shock Mounts for BC-223 wanted

[WF2U]

Good to hear that someone else is trying to put an SCR-245 on the air... I'm
in the same boat.

I have all the connectors - haven't built the cables yet - luckily the
dynamotor supply has the shock mount, and I'm also looking for the FT-173.

Would be neat to have an SCR-245 to SCR-245 contact. I usually "exercise" my
military rigs on the East-Coast "Old Military Radio Net" (OMRN) Sunday
evenings at 9:00 PM Eastern, on 3570. Net control is either Ted, W3PWW or
Chris, AJ1G.
