[Milsurplus] TS-164

[Michael Hanz]

I don't think it was restricted to any BC-221 version, Jim.  There is an 
antenna connector on the top of every TS-164 case^1 that I have ever 
seen which emulates the ones used for quite a few BC-221 variants, and 
the installation instructions simply record "/BC-221-* /" without 
disqualifying any exceptions.  Designed primarily as a field retrofit, 
perhaps the need for complete units simply drew upon a couple of active 
contracts?  Just speculation.
