SRR-11, -12, -13 contract with RCA dated August 1950. So I wonder who was promising two receivers in a case only a couple of inches wider. A submersible case at that!
Mysteries!!

Sounds like a generalized description of the SRR-11, SRR-12 and SRR-13 that came to be in the mid 1950's, doesn't it?

Interesting that JANAP 161 starts the URR series with the URR-9, that datasheet is dated: 9 May 1952.  Guess the budget cuts after WW2 played it's part in the lack of development?  

As an aside, the Air Force certainly got the lion's share of the defense budget at the start of the Cold War.

From July 1949 USN BuShips Electron magazine - dual LF/HF receivers in a submersible case? I love reading about things that never happened....at least I don't think it did...
