[ARC5] An interesting collection. CORRECT MY ERROR!

I failed to look closely!

That is OBVIOUSLY NOT an R-24, which has loop antenna connections on the front panel.  (So does the R-23.)  It is likely an ARA CBY- or CCT-46145 BCB receiver for the ZB homing adapter.

That was the only real reason for the existence of the R-24, but both the R-1 and the R-24 were made obsolete when combined into homing receiver R-4/ARR-2.
