Meir is absolutely correct. In many Signal Corps photos, those taken at
AAF, and after 1947 at USAF installations, you'll see desk-mounted
BC-348 receivers with an LS-3 speaker. One might be inclined to say that
the LS-3 was the de facto, but un-designated ground-based speaker for
the BC-348 for the reasons Meir points out.

The crew used headsets, through which the crew interphone was also operating. No airborne installation manual calls out any speaker for the system. With that said, a BC-348 used by perhaps in a temporary ground control station may have been used with any speaker that was available if speaker operation was feasible in a given environment. The LS-3 speaker was used officially with the BC-312 and BC-342 which are ground equipment.
