Count me in for one of the batch of 2577s if you go ahead. I am a licenced amateur radio op so do use my mil gear, but at present my vehicle restos don't leave much time for researching and building radio stuff.
BTW I have 3 radio trucks from 3 different countries.
In mil radio gear I have:
- Larkspur C42
- Clansman 320
- Clansman 349
- Clansman 350
- Clansman 352 TUAAM etc
- RT-524 - MT1029/AS1729
- PRC-77 (2) - MT1029/AM2060/AM4477/AS1729
- AWA F1 full kit (Aussie Mil HF set)
- Thomson 300/4 (French HF set similar to Clansman 320)
- AB-155/U 40 foot masts (2) with wire dipole.
I also have a number of civvy Codan HF sets which are also used by the Iraqis and Afghan police and military
