 I maybe wrong, but I think there's one of those receivers in the movie Greyhound sitting on a shelf behind the captain eating breakfast early on in the movie. Its hard to tell because you can only see the bottom half of the receiver.

 It looks to me like a Scott SLR-M = Special Low Radiation, encased in
copper, a great radio. SLR to keep enemy subs for detecting the BFO --
maybe...
