[Milsurplus] What Radio Is This??

[ersmar at comcast.net]

Dave:

     The PRC-8,-9 and-10 series of radios included a long fishing pole antenna and base, the PRC-271- AB/129:  http://www.olive-drab.com/od_electronics_anprc10.php .  That might answer the question of what antenna is in the photo.

     Regarding the shape, I think it's a matter of optical perspective of the viewpoint of that photo.  I suspect the shape is somewhat foreshortened by virtue of the view across the top of the case.

     My guess is it's a PRC-10 (infantry unit in the photo) and the above antenna combination.  What do I win?
