[Hallicrafters] SX-36A, RBK esoterica

If you will remember from the month before last or
Decemeber, I was wondering what I had. After some more
investigation, I have come to the conclusion that what
I have is primarilly a rack mounted RBK-12 w/
radiation suppression NOT a 13 or 15. My reasons for
this are as follows:

1. RBK-12's have the "PAN" (Panadaptor) connection on
the rear- exclusively from what I understand.
2. The rack portion comes from the fact that there are
NO antenna connectors on the back, just the archaic
Navy antenna connector off of the RF cabinet mounted
inside the unit.
3. Even though I have the additional 956 "radiation
suppression" tube found in the RBK-15, the RBK-15 did
not come with the PAN and it would be unlikely to have
one put in after-the-fact. I don't think it would be
uncommon to have updated the RBK-12 to a RBK-15 spec.
with an existing RBK-12 unit.

What do you guy's think?

73,
DA
