This is a probably a silly question, but if anyone wants to whack we
me with a clue-by-four I'm sure I'll learn something in the process :

I have a Collins IF deck. On the side it says:

  FINAL I.F. UNIT
  54G 7677 005
  COL. SER. No. 2167

On the top, by J512, it says "MOD 2".

4 Collins filters, 3 of which have orangish ID stickers and the fourth is
more red.  No trimmer caps on the filters, just the postage-stamp micas.

Long ago somebody stripped out the BFO reactor.

I may be somewhat mixed-up about the "54G 7677 005", maybe that last
5 is a 6, maybe the G is a 6.

Probably this has been subject to a lot of abuse, several of the
Vitamin Q's are leaking gunk and a lot of the brown beaties are cracked.

So how is this related to a Collins contract #?

Tim.
