Thanks Mike,I knew someone here would know what it was.Xs is well above UHF , 8000 to 12000 MHZ but resonator looked about the size of a 440Mhz can.But that was just a wild guess on my part.

I also came across a rack mounted Ts-62 which seems to be a fancy UHF resonator can with front panel tuning rather than the usual 'knobs" for vertical mount unit. there are two N type connectors on the front along with a meter. Anybody know what this belongs to?
From NAVSHIPS 900,105: "TS-62/AP test set is a manually tuned echo box or resonance chamber designed for rapid, rough testing of various radar equipment. It will determine relative power output, detect double moding, and give indication of signal to noise ratio. Primarily, it is used as an artificial target with an associated dipole to pick up HF energy from the radar and reradiate it back for a definite period of time termed the ringing time."
Frequency band is recorded as the Xs band.
