Technically, there was the 75A receiver.  Only a very few prototypes were made although the receiver was advertised in a number of publications.  The first real production receivers were labeled 75A-1 of which, at one time, I owned 75A-1 s/n 4.

I'm wondering if anyone can list the receivers that Collins made prior to the 75A1which came out immediately after the war.

Other than the 70E8 PTO & dial kit, I'm not aware of any civilian type sets.  Therewas of course the mate to the ART-13 and perhaps the TCS set.  There was theARC-21 (transceiver) and its update the ARC-65.
If anyone has a list in mind of the Collins receivers prior to the A1, please share with the list.
Thanks in advance
