Clete,

That would be the SCR-624 (technically, it was not built around the SCR-522 
but was built around the radio used in the SCR-522 (the only Signal Corps radio 
I know of with no nomenclature of it's own).

The J-Pole antennas used with SCR-624 were AN-94-A, -B and -C.  They sat on 
top of Mast MA-7-A.  I sold an AN-94 (didn't record the letter unfortunately) 
about 2-1/2 years ago.  I could maybe put you in touch with buyer.

Manuals on SCR-624 were AN 08-40SCR624-2 and then AN 16-40SCR624-2 (later 
revisions).  The final 1952 revision is available as a hardcopy reprint.  I have 
most of the revisions back to the basic in 1944.
