Alan -

Too bad there are no photos of the insides. Regardless, with an order date
code of 1951, it came with tubes. Some ham must have put transistors in it.

It sez,

"WHAT A FIND!  Here is a military RADIO RECEIVER-TRANSMITTER (RT-196/PRC-6) 
by Raytheon Mfg.  - WITH a RADIO DIRECTION FINDER (AT-1082/PRC).  The tubes 
in the radio receiver/transmitter were replaced with transistors, and it 
uses civilian flashlight batteries for power.  This is a FULLY FUNCTIONAL 
unit, both in GREAT condition, as you can see in the photos!  The strap on 
the radio receiver is LIKE NEW! "

Could it be?
