You may not have worried about the C42s in your unit. but in ours we sure did. Old Ed Harrington would have to give us the speech if we didn't shut off the radios before starting or shutting off the master.

The C42s were the only thing we were issued.....if we didn't have that then we had to use the PRC26 which did not have the same range nor channel selection.

I have a stack of those decals at home, so if you don't get an answer in the next couple weeks shoot me a PM in July when I'm home on leave and I'll get the NSN for you. The jeeps usually had the long decal that went along the windshield frame though.
