[Milsurplus] Soviet artillery unit radios

[WF2U]

Is so happens that I'm interested in Soviet/ Warsaw pact radios. I collect and use them. 
My main interest is in HF sets and not the low VHF sets mentioned here. 
Just as one example, among others from all the branches of the Soviet military, I have one of the radios Hubert mentioned -  an R130M (1.5 to 12 MHz, AM/CW and SSB (upper sideband only, just like its contemporary US military radios), 40W out. As a curiosity, while I was a Navy/Marine Corps MARS member, I often used my R130M to check in the daily state net, as USB was the mode of voice operation on the MARS nets.
