[Milsurplus] Re: BC-222 SN 1 on Epay (David Stinson)

[COWARD,JAY]

This is a cool set.WA6OPE,Tom and KD6TKX,Andy, had a pair working well
at 1 mile separation at the '06 MRCG meet in May.I got to talk with Tom
for a minute and I was surprised at the audio quality for such a simple
set.Andy "netted" to Tom by tuning on Tom's regenerative receiver which
was quite strong at 1 mile.Inside looks just like something you'ld  find
in an old QST.

Correct. Dave was also bugging me about some info I have about some of
the
1 1/2 generation Command Sets, all of which were either dogs or just not
accepted - various early SCR-183-T variants, SCR-240/261-A, SCR-274-A,
GN/RAM.

While JETDS ("AN/") numbers were sometime reassigned when a set went
from
prototype to production, I can not think of an instance where the Signal
Corps did a switch.
