Mike,

That is the transmitting capacitor data.  Here's a close up:

It looks a bit to crude to me to be military related.  The size of the 
coil and capacitors looks to me to be in the 1 to 2 MHz range.  The only 
connections I see are two coax cables, each connected to one side of the 
dual section variable capacitor, and the two binding post connectors.  
I'll investigate the circuit later.  WX is to nice for bench work.

I've uploaded a few more photos to the album:

Regardless of what it was intended to be the value of the two 
transmitting capacitors are worth 100X on the surplus market than what I 
have invested.  And I find it a bit weird that those two capacitors are 
exactly like the two I recently used on 29.5 kHz.  Maybe I'm going to 
need two more and just don't know it :)
