Brig Gen Higginson and some of his staff visit the Diyarbakir Tropo Site, Jan 1965. The MRC-98 setup consisted of three semi-trailers and two 9.1 meter dish antennas. Two of the three trailers contained the electronics and were set up back-to-back between the antennas when in operation (center of photo). The third trailer (right), usually set up behind the back-to-back trailers, was the power trailer and had two 250 KVA GM diesel alternators. (Source: SIERRA SIGNALS, September 2008 edition.)
