Yes.  1020 cps.  FL-5-(*) was high-Z with local switch.  FL-8 (high-Z) and 
FL-30 (low-Z) were smaller (no local switches).  FL-90 was panel mount 
version of FL-30.  Navy had several as well (that don't look like the Signal 
Corps ones).

On the A-N radio ranges, I don't know, but I'd rather doubt it.  Perhaps 
one of the FAA guys knows.
