Yeah, the SCR-299 is an exception I forgot.  It appears to have been 
specifically designed around or into the Chevrolet 1-1/2 ton truck.    It would have 
taken some doing to dismount it in its entirety.  SCR-197 may be another, but 
I've never had the manuals and as most appear to have been lost in the PI, I 
never heard of anyone who had one.  I guess that would make the SCR-299 the 
first or second MRC.
