Re: check out this image of a postwar K50 panel
It looks like a Ben-Hur with a generator set behind it. I seem to remember reading that the geneator set was part of the whole rig when set up with radio equipment. It probably came with it from surplus.
Oh, the things that could be had in those days!
I wonder if Orange County still has it?!?

In the link you posted, it says the SCR-299 had infallible voice communication over a wide range of frequencies with a 100 mile range. Seems like it would be perfect for Orange County Police.
