Hi Paul and the group,

Is it really a CR-88?

What is the indication that it was part of a diversity setup?  

CR-88 is really a stand-alone receiver and is distinguished from the AR-88 types by the trio of knobs under the main tuning, including front panel crystal phasing.  

AR-88f is the one used in the DR-89/RDM diversity receiver, which has a Signal Corps nomenclature, too.  It has only the RF and AF gain knobs under the main tuning, and a diversity IF gain control below and between the Selectivity and AVC switches. 

If that turns out to be what you have, I can sent a photo of the tag and an article on how to make one.

Rob
