The IMR54/Eddystone 700  is another heavyweight marine receiver and 
weighs about 135 pounds.  It's also big- about 27 inches wide and 15 
tall, it makes an RBC look small.   Was there a table top version or 
original Marconi cabinet for the Atalantia?  All the photos  I have seen 
of them are in racks or bare chassis on benches. It looks like a neat 
and capable receiver. One thing different from the RBB/RBC and maybe 
RAK/RAL is the Eddystone and Marconi will both work on 120 volts DC 
making battery backup much easier.
