If you turn up any of those covers, I could use 3!

 True.  Nor did the ARMN photo mention covering the set (an ARC-5
 transmitter rack) with anything - just covering the connectors with Dow
 Corning Ignition Sealing Compound.  As I said, we're just speculating here.
  No real smoking gun to give you, sadly.

Then there's the RAX-1. Was recently flipping through the manual and saw
hat it includes a set of 3 canvas covers, one for each set. The front is
otally open, and from the little I've learned and seen (primarily on the
afradio pages, I admit), these receivers seem to have predominantly
een installed in the belly of much larger, land-based aircraft like the
B4Y where they would be less-exposed, if at all.
One would guess that some covers were meant for storage and others for use
n flight. Perhaps the RAX-1 covers were meant to keep them warm and comfy
o they'd yield good info? (o:
