[Milsurplus] Antenna Tuner TN-174/GRA-4 Question

[Al Klase]

Carl,

Did you mean ANGRY-9 with the neon lamp?  AN/GRC-5 is mobile a VHF TX/RX 
set.  Also SCR-264 doesn't make sense either.  My reference says:  
"SCR-264 Aircraft Radio, 60-66 + 108-156 MC (VHF SCR-274) R/B SCR-522 "

Anyway, the AN/GRC-9 will almost literally load a wet noodle.  So a 
tuner won't do much.  The BC-348 will do just fine, by itself with that 
sort of antenna.
