Lee,

I just looked quickly through the manual and as previously posted the only 
mentions of AN/PRC-74C that I could find relate, as previously mentioned, to 
either mechanical changes (mostly brackets and lockwashers) or the change 
in panel frequency unit markings.

TM 11-5820-590-35 covers AN/PRC-74 and AN/PRC-74A (only).  The DS, GS and 
Depot manual for AN/PRC-74B and AN/PRC-74C is TM 11-5820-590-35-1, plus 
Change 1.  I don't know of a free download source for either manual.  I have a 
hard copy reprint of the -35-1 available for $45.90 plus shipping.

Trivia sidenote:  In a recent thread that started off about the PRC-74, 
there were several posts where the poster has apparently misread 74 for 47.  
The Depot manual for AN/PRC-47 is TM 11-5820-509-35.  I just mistyped 590 as 
509 while looking up the price of the former.  :-)
