Wayne,

The R-23/ARC-5 had the loop antenna posts and selector switch. Could also 
be a CBY-46102 (RAV). In that set, both the 46102 and the 46103 had the loop 
posts. Unfortunately, the seller did not include a photo of the bottom of 
the set with bottom cover off.

Besides the ZB and AN/ARR-1, the NT-62036 was also used to power an LM and 
something else whose nomenclature escapes me at the moment. Of course, as it 
is a Stromberg-Carlson unit, odds are fairly good that some previous 
civilian owner plugged it in there.
