[Milsurplus] TCS pair on Ebay

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

It does look somewhat the worse for wear.  I tend to lean toward storage in 
a duck pond.  Chicken coops are too difficult to flood.

However, I can't see anything that's still on the front of it that isn't 
either original or Navy approved mod.  The first model TCS to have the three 
handles on the front was the TCS-6.  TCS through TCS-5 had the four corner 
posts.  And as it has a nameplate, it must be a TCS-5.  The TCS through TCS-4 
that I've seen had no front panel nameplates.  And the TCS and TCS-4 manuals 
agree.  All that they had was a very small plate on the rear of the chassis 
that said 51Q.
