[MRCA] Helmet radio

[Mike Feher]

Like Al said, it does sound like a PRC-34, however as far as I recall the T/R module fits into the helmet along with the battery, but is not molded in. The PRC-36 is the same radio but the R/T is belt mounted in a case, with the controls on it, and the antenna does mount on the helmet. I have some of each. They are real neat little sets.  73 – Mike

Exclusive of the PRR/PRT radio sets, does anyone recall the radio or the nomenclature of a radio set that was molded into the battle helmet?  It had a little whip that stuck out.  The radio was sort of potted in Styrofoam or something?  MARS had a few of them come through back in the 60's.  Just a shot in the dark as the question came up in a ARNG forum today.
