SCR-528 Installation
« on: June 14, 2023, 03:07:51 PM »
I finally finished up the SCR-528 radio installation in my M2A1 that I started almost a year and a half ago but had to put on hold for lack of a CH-74-A cabinet. A zillion thanks to Robert Downs for all his time and trouble to send me one. Everything is up & running now!

Where did you get your FT-284?  I bought a repro a while back but it's terrible.

I couldn't find a reproduction that looked right either. I made this one from CAD drawings a that buddy made from his original: http://halftrackinfo.com/index.php?topic=2814.0
If you decide to make one, let me know if you need any pictures, dimensions, etc..
