I have found the BX-19, but the research continues for the BX-21.
Someone has a picture of this box?

Thanks

Alberto,

I don't have the BX-21 dimensions. The photo just posted is the first that I have seen. All that I can tell you is that it is large enough to hold a BX-8 and a BX-21, plus the headset, mic, etc.

Thanks to Gee member g504 finally I have all the dimension in order to realize a exact copy of the BX 21. A detailed drawing will be available asap.

Alberto,
I found the box! Here are a few photos. The box is in excellent condition with the exception that part of the hasp is missing.

Thought I'd piggy back on this post since it has all the pictures. I am also looking for both the BX-19 and a BX-21. I do have the dimensions for the BX-21 (thank you Thierry), but that will be my backup plan. Anyone have a spare lying around or know of one for sale? TIA

If anyone ever did a decent drawing of the BC-21, I would mind having a copy. I've never seen one. I do have a BX-8, BX-19 and BX-20. I decided to break up the SCR-193 and SCR-245-A or -AX I was once accumulating parts for.

I got a chuckle looking at the TM photo of the soldier "tuning" the spare tuning unit for the BC-191.
