Thanks for the info...Bill

If memory serves correctly, the mil version was tropicalized with yellow shellac. 
Also the radio came out as 51J, 51J2, and then 51J3 which was the 388/URR. 

The 388A/URR had mechanical filters added (an upgrade kit was available) and sold commercially as a 51J4 

Can't think of too much else. 

Others have comments?
