I have a Capehart unit (#505), same order number.  When I took the name plate
off to rewire the pilot lamps the number was written underneath as well.  It
sounds like yours is a slightly younger brother!  Mine has a Porgressitron VFO
and an EAC IF deck.  The rest is Capehart.  I replaced the electrolytics and
the mechanical filter coupling cap before I put any power to the radio.
