Rod,

If you release the four snap-slides and look at the hidden face of the base 
plate you will find a nameplate.  Probably it will identify the dynamotor 
as a DM-32-A (GE made the what I call "dynamotor-proper" but so did a few 
other contractors).  But that depends upon who last clipped the dynamotor on, 
and when.  It could be any of the other ones.  FWIW, in the general mil radio 
market the dynamotor is worth more than the AM-26.
