Wanted: AN/PRC-510 Parts

[Bruce Parker (RIP)]

I'm looking for parts for a 1950's era Canadian PRC-510 radio. Most wanted is the canvas carrying case, though a headset and aerials would be nice. The aluminum instruction plate would be golden!!

Is the headset not the same as the 25/77 sets? If so, I have several hundred.

I may also have a bunch of the antennas which I grabbed at the local surplus yard thinking they are for the 77. They do not appear to be.

I think the headsets are different, unfortunately. It's the earpiece (6) in the drawing I need.

The aerials (the long the short but no tall) are hollow tubes with a wire down the middle so the signaler doesn't loose the sections...just the whole antenna.

I have a used five-pin headset that I'd like to trade for a twist-plug headset, ie ANPRC 25/77 set. Also looking for the 8" rubber base for the 10' whip.

Hi Bruce. Do you know the model number of the long antenna? I have a couple of AT-271 A/PRC antennas available, but not sure if that is what you need.
