[Milsurplus] BC numbers

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

I'm out of town on a pipeline consulting job and will see whether I can 
turn up anything else after I return to Houston.  But with what I have with me, 
BC-1420-A and BC-1421-A are improved versions of BC-638-A and BC-639-B.  
I'm sure that I've seen (may have) something independently corroborating that 
(other than just my database).  But I don't show BC-1608, can't think of any 
logical reason for such a large skip (small skips did occur), and have a  
glimmer of a suspicion that it's a typo from "BC-1068".  The descriptions are 
similar.  However, I noticed that there is a typo in the BC-1068 entry in 
Fred's list.  The manual (or one of them) on RC-148 is TM 11-1118, not 1117.  
I'll have to get back to Houston before I can confrim BC-1068 as being part 
of RC-148.
