Photos of my GN-44-A for the SCR-288 (BC-474).

Also photos of the correct issue antenna, counterpoise
and power cable. Please note the canvas is not SCR-288;
it's TRC-7. I just use it because it "fits" and is a good way
to keep all the bits together.
If I ever find the rx battery door and the canvas,
I'll have this set complete.
Note to any BC-474 owners:
There is an electrolytic cap
in the B+ lead which filters the genny output and is in the
T/R switch B+ contact circuit. It charges up, and when you
go to Transmit, it sparks and will eat-up the switch contact.
It's a design flaw. I disconnected mine to prevent this.
