Accessories for the AN/PRC-25 and AN/PRC-77
Antenna Bag CW-503
The accessories in the following list are commonly used with the AN/PRC-25 and AN/PRC-77 backpack radios. In addition to the standard issue antennas, operating distance for the AN/PRC-25 or PRC-77 could be extended to as much as 20 miles by using the RC-292 ground-plane antenna with its thirty foot mast.
Antenna Bag, CW-503/PRC-25. Sectionalized canvas bag used to carry 2 antennas and handset.
The ST-138/PRC-25 Harness is a cotton duck back pack. It is sewn to secure the receiver-transmitter so that it can be carried on the operatorís back.
The CW-503/PRC-25 Bag is a sectionalized canvas carrying case used to store the two whip antennas and the handset.
The AT-892/PRC-25 is a one-section, three foot, whip antenna. A spring at its base allows the antenna to be placed in a vertical position no matter what the position of the receiver-transmitter. It is constructed of steel tape and can be folded for storage.
The AT-271A/PRC is a six section, tubular, folding whip antenna. A stainless steel, plastic-covered cable (or braided plastic cord) under spring tension is threaded through the sections to keep them together when assembled for operation and prevent their separation or loss when disassembled. Spring tension is provided by a spiral spring in the base section. An antenna top cap installed on the tip of the antenna provides protection for personnel.
The AB-591/PRC-25 is an antenna base that will act as a rigid support for the tubular six section antenna.
The H-189/GR Handset contains a dynamic microphone and receiver for transmitting and receiving signals. A push-to-talk switch is mounted in the handle. The connecting cord is retractile and terminates in a five-pin connector.
