That sounds like that small transceiver used by the U. S. Forest Service at fire lookouts... but probably isn't.Ken W7EKBSent via the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone

Pre-war, maybe early WW2. Small… maybe 12x12x12, speaker plus telephone handset on the front panel. Xtal controlled TX, Small vernier receiver tuning dual lower right. Vibrator supply, octal tubes, maybe 6L6 PA.Nomenclature: TRC-something… 175? Sounds like a modern nomenclature, but that’s what it was.Been looking for one for a while, but not obsessive about it. Never saw any literature.Anyone?73,KenW2EWL
