The SoroSuub DH77 was developed during the start of the Galactic
Civil War and became standard comms for Platoon-level Imperial Army
units and then built into stromtrooper helmets. It was replaced later
during the Galactic
Civil War by the Herzfall Corporation's DH107, after problems developed
where nearby explosions would cause a deadzone
with DH77 transmissions, and contrails from TIE Fighters would knock
out the DH77 when within three kilometers. This is due to the presence
of high energy particle emissions from these situations.
