[Boatanchors] Nems/Clark Rx

[Rod Hogg]

Now am back on after a terrible computer worm infection et al., have
an inquiry.

Have a Nems/Clarke Model -1502- says on name plate, "Special Purpose
Reciever".  Is AM/FM, tunes 55-280Mhz with switchable bandwidth (video
bandwidth) of 1-3-10-30-300 Khz.  Does good job of rcving FM bcst, 
VHF public service and AM aircraft. Quite sensitive and stable.
Question is, what was it designed/used for?  Also have the sister to 
it in Military nominclature of R-278A/FLR-2 Mfg by Nems/Clarke.  Can't
find much out about it.  Haven't heard what FLR equipment was.

Thanks for any help on it.  

Also thanks to all that responded my indirect searchs for help on
getting
a Collins 30S-1 key and etc.  Still don't have a key.  But will have to
do more research.  The Amp is a Round emblem, made for Military, no 
numbers on lock (on outside anyhow).
