[Milsurplus] radios in Dragnet

[Michael A. Bittner]

Once when I was in the old J.J. Glass surplus store in down town LA, the actor Daren McGavin walked in and asked for help in picking out some techie looking stuff for a movie.  I didn't stay long enough to see what they came up with, but BC-375 units were popular then for such use.

  period.......
