[Milsurplus] BC-222

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

The manuals were a Preliminary Instruction Book in 1938, TR 1210-52 in 1939 
(haven't seen this one), TM 11-238 in 1942 and again in 1943.  The 1943 edition 
only covers SCR-195 (BC-322).  The others cover SCR-194 and SCR-195.  If 
anyone needs it, I have a reprint available of the 1942 edition.  Source document 
was a probably 2nd generation copy so photos aren't good, but rest of it 
cleaned up OK.
