The delivery of SRT-14/15/16 was mid '50s and everyone I worked on and the
one I have were/are gray. The pictured one must have been a local rework or
paint job.

A couple of my TCS sets had panels that looked like the mod was done with a
milling machine, everything nice and square and the flange of the connector
relieved to clear the antenna current meter. Antenna coupler??? I'd like to
see that!! Dave Ross N7EPI gave me a TCS device a couple of years ago that
you might be able to ID, I'll send a .jpg. It is labeled for the TCS and set
up for TCS input but the output is a large ( 'S'??) connector. Dave didn't
know what it came from, I've never seen one before but it sure is a neat TCS
oddity.
