Hi Ken,

From the Mil List:

RBZRadio receiving equipment, 2-5.8 MHz, AM, 455 Kc IF, tunable personal set, 
receiver and battery box in canvas case on operator's chest, uses helmet as 
antenna (AC supply also made), Major components:  
46203 Radio receiver, 
19140 Battery holder, 
49214 Headset assembly, 
2 ea <A HREF="http://www.nj7p.org/cgi-bin/millist?name=BA-30">BA-30</A> 1.5 Volt batteries, 
<A HREF="http://www.nj7p.org/cgi-bin/millist?name=BA-51">BA-51</A> 67.5 volt battery}.

I remember seeing them advertised in the radio mags in the late 40s & 50s.  
Never thought they would amount to much for amateur radio so never bought one 
although the price was very low.

73,

Norm Hall, W6JOD
