[Milsurplus] AM-FM Radio for M-37

[Steve Haney]

The M-37 had an authorized installation for the RT-524, but the radios went
on the seats in the bed.  Is there even room in the cab? How many M-37's
had RT-524's installed, who knows.
I personally witnessed M-37's come out of a Reserve or National Guard unit
in 1975 or 76, well into the time of the RT-524.
I do not recall seeing any radio installations on them, but that was a long
time ago, and I would not have known what I was looking at.
Thanks, Steve
