I especially liked "It appears to be complete and un tampered with."!
Regards to the List,

I have some insight into why that thing looks like that. Back around
1960, I was working in a 2-way radio shop, and one of the owners also
had an A & E certificate. The mobile radio business got slow, and he
went out and solicited repair and alignment of a fleet of those *%
$#*&+! things. After working on benign mobile radios, it was a
shocking experience to find most of the tuning adjustments had B+ on
them, all unmarked, of course. Probably some tech had less patience
than I did and flung the d---ed thing across the room as hard as he
could. I sure wanted to.
