This radio was usually added at the unit/battalion level. Here is one that could have been installed in a Deuce. I believe you may need a HAM license to legally operate on some frequencies.

Crazy thing is - with three years in the Army (1968-1971) stationed at Ft Knox, Ft. Lee, Atlanta Army Depot, Ft Bragg, and a tour in Viet Nam, I never saw a radio in an M35 - except PRC-25s hanging in some cabs.

After saying that, I have a AN/VRC-64 with a VIC-1 in my M35A3....!!

I agree they were few and far between, but I did have a RT-524 in my Deuce at Camp Hunter Liggett, 6/74-12/75. In fact, each platoon had 3 or 4 Deuces with 524's installed. Go figure.

Post #2 has a link. Google RT-524, Military Radios, Fair Radio, etc.

You do need a HAM radio license to transmit on the VRC-12 radios. However, you don't need a license to listen

The larger the caliber the farther the range......the .50 cal "PRIC 88" will get out over ten miles.
