[Milsurplus] ID CLG-20414 Vibrator

Groups,

Can anyone ID a CLG-20414 Vibrator?  I acquired a couple in a swap deal last 
week, and didn't find it (much to my surprise) in my database.  Obviously 
NAVMARCOR from the nomenclature.  Unlike most WW-II vintage vibrators (cylindrical 
cans of various diameters), it has an aluminum sheet metal base and a cane 
metal cover.  Somewhat similar to the VB-16 used in the PE-237 for the BC-1306 
and AN/GRC-9 but mounted to the base plate are two 6-pin plugs (standard 6-pin 
tube base dimensions) and the actual vibrator is mounted horizontally rather 
than vertically.  Two D-rings on the top of the cover for pulling it out of 
whatever it is used in.  Painted black.  Also marked Y-901 and NTX-1677A.  And 
several other stamps that look like QC or acceptance stamps.

I'm guessing some obscure power supply or audio amp, as I'm familiar with the 
vibrators used in most of the tactical radios of the period.
