I called the receiver a R2-C but I guess it's really just a 2-C:

And I called the transmitter a T2-NT but it's really just a 2-NT;

But they were a pair intended for novices. But they were "PRICEY"!

They might not look enough alike to call them "TWINS".

  Fascinating. I never heard of these. Are there pictures anywhere?

  The Drake T2-NT was probably a bit "PRICEY" for a novice at that point in 
  time.

  And remember there was a matching receiver. The R2-C. The R2-C and T2-NT 
  were styled more like the 4-Line units.

  If you have a T2-NT then you probably need to find a R2-C to go with it.
