BC-659 unmodified called for use of W-128 antenna lead wire ( No more than 3 feet ) so the AB-15 with the screw in post for use with W-128 wire, or the MP-48 could be used. There was a mod that could replace the antenna connection box on the radio itself so that coaxial antenna lead could be used. The manual called for the use of an AB-15 antenna. In practice, most Jeeps I've seen in wartime pictures were using the BC659 used the MP-48
