I  responded to the original post (before I looked at this thread) and 
sent a copy to Richard Dillman at MRHS thinking he might be familiar 
with it.

Definately looks like it was for high-speed Morse.  I was looking for a 
tape reader on it initially. So, I agree with Jim, it may have been 
modified to just be a "Wheel" to send out ID.

I'll look in the Boehme books in the Museum when I'm there on Tuesday if 
RD doesn't respond by then.
