Oggetto: Re: [Milsurplus] "BC means Basic Component"

In later manuals.  Specifically the Joint Electronics Type Designation system manual MIL-STD-196a dated 9May57 

SCR stands for Surface Water Craft, Carrier, Receiving passive/detection. 

But of course it’s a later publication.

Clearly the SCR naming system was thought up early on. Consider the WW2  SCR-625 mine detector, which was neither a radio nor operated by Signal Corps personnel.
