    The GRC-27, ARC-27, PRC-41, and GRA-53 all will work down to 220 mc
    unmodified, although sensitivety and power output  decrease. They
    can be regained by  adjusting the trimmer condensors, but
    performance at the upper  frequencies of no use to hams will be
    seriously degraded.  It is a viable rig for ham use, and unless the
    regulations have changed, it would be great for  AFSK Teletype.

    AN/GRC-27 was a decent rig in
          its day for what it was used for.  But it isn't legal for US
          hams to talk to US military aircraft.  It covers 225-400 MC
          AM.and MCW.

              I don't know about you guys, but
                periodically I have stuff "magically show

                up" on my back porch. 

                

                This morning, when I went out to feed our resident feral
                cats, there was a

                pair of R278G/GRC-27 receivers sitting on the back
                porch.

                

                I'm not entirely sure if the person that left them there
                likes me or not. ;-)
