Sapper,
Are you a communications troop? Looks kinda like radio relay equipment.
Good photos, snow in the background?

Sapper,
Hey great. I was in the Air Force for twenty years, communications, navigational aids. My son's in the Marines, crypto maintenance. The last radio relay equipment i actually saw used tubes (valves).

Well, good thing about signals, is that it keeps developing all the time...

Here are some basic information about the system we are using, altough we dont use those btr-50 APC´s anymore (thank god), like they say in FDF´s webpage. We use xa202 pasi´s, like the one shown in a link i posted before...
