Attention Hardcore Collectors!
You may never see again a near MINT set
of BC-611C radios also knows as SCR-536 when they include the battery packs.
The BEST part is these matching radios
actually receive and transmit to each
other. They are powered by state of the art electronic PSU's which use 4 D cell batteries to produce the correct voltage necessary to operate the radios!

Considering the fact that most single BC-611's
sell anywhere from $250 to $350 a piece and 98 percent are not working and will never be able to, and are suitable only for display. I feel this is a rare opportunity for you to have one of the finest working sets available anywhere
for any price.

I do believe that these radios were never used. They are both in such beautiful condition inside and out! The sponge rubber covering over the ear piece is still pliable and intact as well as the rubber seal at the base of the antennae. We did however have to replace the push to talk rubber as they were a little stiff and are prone to crack with use. Both freq. cards are in place with the same freq. listed for both radios. The spec tags and even the fungicide ink stamp are the same on both radios! The only negative thing I can say about these radios is on one of them the strap has separated near the bottom. Which could be easily sewin together or replaced. Personally I would sew it back together. An ORIGINAL TM is included with same date as the radios.
