Default Canvas covers

Hello

Yes there were Canvas covers for the 524 vehicle mounted radio and the 25 and 77 set mounted in the amplifier\ power units. These are hard to come by and i have seen them on e-bay for over $90.00 US.
They exist as i have one for my radio out of CDN DND stock.
There was a canvas bag for the fiberglass antennae's as well.

The C42 also has a canvas cover for both the radio unit and the tuning unit. These were a basic square bag with a drawstring on the bottom. I had some copied at one time from originals but have sold them off to others who needed them more than me. The antennae stuck through a grommet hole in the top of the tuning unit.

I moved away from the C42 to the 524 for my M38A1 as it is a bit lighter in weight.

Thanks
Eric
