Thank, I'll get that ER!  Here are some pictures of my unit. Looks like an RT-91/ARC-2 data plate.  Has metal knobs, has RF meter, does not have meter switch.
Also interesting to note that this one has been stamped "TYPE TEST UNIT"

Good rundown o the ARC-2 & 2A in ER #39.  Designed and built by Collins. Frequency range  2 - 9 mHz, 15 - 30 watts out AM & CW,  26.5  
V @ 20 amps power input.  Eight preset channels.   Biggest shortcoming  
for ham use is a lack of selectivity, BW approx. 16 kHz at 6 db down.   
I use a BC-946 with mine as a Q-5er.
