Technically, the set used on the Fleet boats was the SCR-624, not the
SCR-522 (or SCR-542). Those three sets are "wierd" in that the radio used with
them has no nomenclature of its own. Its four component parts have
nomenclatures but the assembled set doesn't. I can't think of another example like
that.
