[Milsurplus] RBO-2 cover, another possibility

[Nick England]

I agree about grounding. And there must have been better receivers
somewhere (probably SRR-11, SRR-13). I can't recall where I got that photo,
perhaps off the National Archives. I had it dated as 1972 but clearly this
space hadn't been changed since her 1959 commissioning. She had a major
update in 1963 so maybe this photo date is wrong.

Here are some photos of sister ship AE-22 USS Mauna Kea when she was
updated in 1966

R-1051, WRR-3, R-390A, and a couple of URR-22 morale rcvrs.
