Marty, i had a couple of these RC receivers a few years back,
including a BC-??? one used with target drones. I was sure of
the use of the BC-thing because i got it from a Navy man who
was involved with its use. Cannot now remember the class of
ship he was on that launched the drone. Must have been pretty
large tho.  His ship was also at Iwo Jima and altho the crew were
told to stay below decks, he listened to the action on the radio
and snuck onto the deck to have a peek. He also said when the
drone was launched the deck had to be cleared. One time the
drone just wouldn't take off and wouldn't take off, just sat there.
Some one person went out to take a look at what was wrong-
against rules.  They never saw that man again.  Oh, yeah,
what i really meant to say, back when i wanted to dispose of 
my RC receivers, i found zero interest. -Hue
