Army. It will also instruct you in the many areas an advancement-minded signal NCO needs
to know.

There’s no substitute for training. Yet, too often, training stops after a Soldier leaves Ft

the Internet and explore the LANDWARNET eUNIVERSITY.

signal ncos, and those who
want to be, absolutely,
positively need to have
bookmarked as one of your
favorite internet sites.
and you need to
check it
regularly!
hold your horses,
cowboy, if you’re
thinking about replacing
the oe-254/grc antenna
with the com-201b.
the rumor that the
com-201b is replacing
the oe-254 has been
sweeping the prairie, but
it’s
just not true!
the oe-254 has been in short supply
because of demand and failure to turn in
reparable ones. but supply has improved,
so submit your requisitions.
there are several reasons
you want to stay with the
oe-254 instead of switching
to the com-201b.
first, in test after
test, the oe-254
out performs the
com-201b.
second, the oe-254
is a field-level
reparable item. the
com-201b isn’t.
finally, the oe-254
is
cheaper!
the
com-201b costs
twice as much.
Use a RIC of BY6, an SOS of
B16 and a DODAAC of W25G1W.
There is no credit for the return
of this major item, and you will
need to submit a new requisition
in order to replace it.
if you have questions on
requisitioning the OE-254,
contact CECOM LCMC at
DSN 992-4189 or
(

32) 532-4189. Or email:
lynda.macdonald@us.army.mil
Once the requisitions for
the OE-254 start rolling in
again, demand will deplete the
supply. So, check your unit area
for reparable antennas and
turn them in! Send them to:
