[R-390] Top and bottom covers-Why?

[kc9ieq via R-390]

Thanks for asking the question.  I had never before heard the term "Utah plate" being used to describe that cover.

The "Utah" plate is so named for its resemblance to the outline of the state of Utah.  It covers the RF deck's IF coils and slug racks in the R-390A.

I've been lurking to see if anyone would give a hint on what the different plate are that is presently being discussed. So, what and where are the Utah  and any other "named" plates?  I have every Collins radios from 51J3 on up and have not heard of these names used. No I don't have manuals available or I'd look it up myself. 
Anyone care to explain?
