[MRCA] BC-312 Restoral Info Needed

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Rich,

To begin with, the BC-312 by definition is a dynamotor operated set (mostly 
12 volt but two 24 volt models built).  The BC-342 was AC rectifier operated.  
The 12 volt BC-312's were used with the BC-191, BC-223 and BC-223-A and in the 
SCR-299/399/499.  The 24 volt ones were used with the BC-223-AX.  There were 
probably a few paired up with BC-375's late in the War but not officially.
