[Milsurplus] BC-348-R

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Chuck,

I do.  I have manuals that cover every model except the -F (if it was 
actually built).  Reprint of T.O. 12R2-3BC-112, the final 1957 revision of the 
HKLR manual, is $20.00 plus $2.50 shipped CONUS.

After the BC-348-F, there are three model groups and manual strings, EMOPS, 
HKLR, and JNQ.  What I mean by "manual string" is that each of the three 
had it's manual number administrively changed several times between about 1944 
and the mid 50's.  Sometimes along with changes to the content and 
sometimes just the number change.  If you have any other manual except -N or -Q, 
you'd be better off using it than the -J one.  The main differences, both 
electrical and mechanical, are between all of the rest and the JNQ's.  The main 
differences between anything in HKLR and anything in MOPS are the circuit 
symbol numbers, which are all or almost all totally different.

Incidentally, does anyone have a BC-348-E?  If so, does it have five or six 
bands?
