I have a couple of RBS and the manual (which can be copied) but no RBM.
Steve Finelli also has the RBS as well as the only existing weather decks
enclosure I know of. Retired co-worker and retired Navy RMC Gary Sinn KM6A
related that they used the RBS up into the early '60s as an aux rx on
auxiliary vessels to copy Navy broadcast( RATT) but the RBS would drift all
over during rough weather, big thumps from waves. He was talking about the
USS Pollux.
That said..I have a realy nice RBM power supply out back I'm willing to
swap or sell to a needy RBM owner/user/restorer. I have to dig it out ( no
exageration) to get the tag #. Right now am interested in TCS parts, TCK
stuff, or spares for SRT-14/15.
