Leigh,

Find some rivets and move the cal chart to the good case.  Then use whichever 
nameplate looks best or you prefer.  The TBY through TBY-3 all use a 43007 
radio (which is actually what you have, not two TBY's).  So there are no 
internal or external differences between radios delivered on the four model contracts 
other than condition and nameplate.

TBY-4 on use a 43044 radio.
