[Milsurplus] my previous TCS 50 ohm coupler comment

I realize that it may seem superfluous to record the 50 ohm coupler 4-band rotary switch setting,
since it switches between frequency bands, covering roughly the same frequency range as the 3-band frequency selector
rotary switch on the front panel BUT there could be instances where an operating frequency
falls at the edge of a coupler  band and where the next higher/lower band switch selection works best.
(I say "roughly" same frequency range because the TCS starts at 1.5 MHz and 1.7-1.9 MHz
was sometimes used for maritime and other non-amateur land-based communications. But I suppose
the low band setting on the 50 ohm coupler could also handle that frequency segment.)
