Correct - the AN/URT-23 series was US Navy equipment.
Ed is confusing it with the USAF's General Dynamics (Stromberg-Carlson)
SC-908 amp that went with his SC-901 receiver-exciter. These SC units were
evidently predecessors to the R-1051, T-827, RT-618, URT-23, family

I have just begun a page on the SC-series at
