Al, is your RT-350A one actually used by the military, with contract/order
numbers shown below the nomenclature, or is it a commercial model with
only nomenclature but no military order numbers shown?

I've seen both versions, but the non-military version seems most common.
AFAIK, the labeling is the only difference between them, but I think that
the commercial models are more common than the military models.  I have some
United Airlines emergency kit information from the mid-1960s that lists
the RT-350A/URC-14 as the radio used.

Did you make a battery for power?
