>Hi John,
>   I have an R-274/SX73 in it's original signal corps cabinet. It has the designation CY-1345/GR on the plate.  Yours may be for a different radio or purpose, but may also fit the R-274.  Good Luck, Ross

>> I picked up a cabinet today which has a label on top stating: 
>> 
>> Signal Corps     U. S. Army
>> Case, Receiver 
>> CY-1260G
>> The Hallicrafters Company
>> 
>> It accepts a 19 inch panel and the overall dimensions are 20 1/4W X 13 1/8H X
>> 13 1/2D. There are a couple of chassis slides at the bottom and the unit has
