Most of ya'll probably already caught this,
but for those as slow on the uptake as me:
Don't know how I missed it over all these years-
probably because of the early nomenclature- 
but here, from Mike Hanz's page on the BC-307,
is evidence of the early versions of SCR-183

The receivers listed on the right are early -183.
This also explains the external "BFO" rig that is
mentioned (but not by name) in the manual.
