Hue the similar Halli Sky Courier did it too

And yup, ckt. diag stencilled under formica chassis shelf

& & &... you sed b4 schemat in PA book.  No, just a "adaptation note."
There is a TM-11-something titled "repair of common US Army receivers"
that has it, the '312/342, 652, etc.

I know the things were 'stacked to the sky' @ the BX on Guam in '47.  
$5/ea NIB.  Beware, OT folklore.

  helped re-launch European radio manufacturing.

Man were BC/sw metal govt-like rxs a popular item in '46 & 7.  Just
got another never-seen example called a Hudson American Clipper @ AWA 
auction.  Will sit next to a metal Detrola & a Minerva TropicMaster.
And a R-100.... which web-site & a guy here shows civvy-built as an Espey.
