Hello Everybody,
       Thank you for the very appreciated  help. I was able to find out 
much about this set once it was  identified.  So I did a little digging,  Of 
course, I share what I get  with the group.  Here's what I came up with
 
SCR-178
 
Components:
 
 
BC-186 -A             Receiver 
BC-187- A             Transmitter 
BC-188-A               Modulator
BX-4                     Battery  Box
GN-37                    Generator ( hand Cranked ) 8 volt and 500 volt
Ch-38                    chest
CH-39  -                 chest
CD-125                 Power cord
IN-85                    Antenna  Base
MS-49 -MS 56       Antenna Sections
J-44                       Morse code key
T-17                       Microphone
HB-7                      Headphones   ( varied by year of manufacturer ) 
 
Batteries ( Receiver)
BA-2      4 ea       22.5 volt
BA-23    4 ea      1.5  volt
BA-27    2 each   Multi-tap  4.5 volt, 3 volt  and 1.5 volt   
 
 
Operating frequencies were 2.4 - 3.7 mHz
 
Replaced by the SCR-608, SCR-609 and SCR-628
 
 
Army Motors is putting this picture inside the front cover of their next  
issue and was looking for some info on the radio.
 
Again, many thanks.
