Well, 8th AF did write a manual.  Some RS-6 did get funded
because there one is on Breck's table.  We don't know that
they were ever intended to be assigned to airplanes.  They
could have been for some other use by some other people.
The lack of the standard markings tells us that they were
procured outside the normal channels.  The units being
small, they could be hidden easier.  The problems just
mentioned here indicates that not much of user
friendly engineering went into them.  Many of you know that
we placed a lot of weird unmarked radios into SE Asia.
