[Milsurplus] BC-222

[John McCarty]

I've used a BC-322 a couple of times, mainly to demo with a TBY about a city
block away on AFD, though once we had a BC-322 to Gonset III qso on 6 with about
a mile between the sets. Good audio both ways. The two problems with the '322
were:

1) You can hear the super-regen detector a long way away.

2) Certain antenna lengths cause "dead spots" in the '322 regen, and the antenna
had to be shortened/lenghtened.
