Lotsa reasons why these are discovered NIB

One unmentioned one is right.  Legislation

Allies decided on MkIII 160-190mhz frequency/code-agile system early
o.  An amazing British system.  Really amazing.  Would be hard to 
clone/dupe today with PLL & sw-defined radios.  The delta-f over F was so
dang big.

BC-645/ABAs were coming off the line at a fruious rate B4 the brakes were
set.

BC-645 was a pulse deal run by code-wheel as one guy correctly noted.  
Wasn't FM tho.  System was called Mk-IV.  Not related to Sgt. Friday's 
production company

Amazing feature is the 11V dynamotor who's input was regulated by a carbon-pile
regulator... had to have that code-wheel speed regulated
