Ok, so I now know it is a GPW/MB that’s in the circle and not a M-38 I wrongly assumed that the GRC-9 and the M-38 were introduced both around the same time so it would have been depicted in a M-38

Just put up a video of one of the AN/GRC-9 that I have been playing with. Interesting radio and it appears there were many produced and many more options for powering by AC, Dry Battery with hand crank and Vehicle. Somehow get the feeling that the GRC-9 was something like the PRC-25/77 of its day.

Also attached an image from the FM, like the picture! Very sexy for a nineteen fifties radio with the M-38 and all that. Only thing is not certain if the vehicle in the circle is a M-38 or maybe a GPW looking at the bumper?
