I'm wondering if the R-392 mobile rx was designed for a hi-Z antenna
input, since it would have been used with whips on a Jeep and the
like.


I had a R-392. The BNC connector was for the Jeep type whip. Since this was
truly a field type radio, they included the universal antenna post for
hooking up any kind of long wire.

It would be an easy thing to pull the chassis out, and see if there is any
kind of impedance matching network off either of the 2 antenna ports.

Let me tell you, that thing is killer on the BCB with any kind of loop fed
into the BNC connector.
