[Milsurplus] KWM-2A - different sizes?

[Mike Davidsen]

I own a KWM-2A that I will be restoring over the winter timeframe, it was a
gift from my Elmer, and has spent some time in a mouse-infested shed so
there are some, ahem, gifts that were left by the previous residents, along
with missing tubes, etc.   

 

I spent the last weekend helping the crew of the USS Torsk in Baltimore, MD,
on their annual work weekend, and they have a KWM-2A in their radio room in
NICE shape.  However, in looking over the unit, I notice that it did not
have a separate power supply unit, like most S-series have.  It instead had
an attached box, same height and width of the radio's main body, attached to
the back end of the rig.  It extended the length of the case by a good 6
inches, and was painted the same color as the radio's case, and had the same
profile.  I am assuming that this is some sort of power supply box, tacked
onto the back end of the radio.  But I can't find any mention of this
anywhere on the web.  

 

Help, please?
