Hello From NE5DX.
A Few Examples of
Of Various ID Tags.

-----
This belongs to one of the most
famoust lines of equipment,
T-19/ARC-5
-----
A Collins R-105A/ARR-5 HF receiver.
-----
An "instruction" tag found on
the front panel of an ART-13
transmitter.
-----
The ID tag of a typical T-47/ART-13.
-----
This is the ID tag from a low
frequency unit for an ART-13

Here's the ID tag on an antenna
changeover switch used airborn
with the ART-13
transmitter in the B-29 bomber.

This is a nice example of
the cabinet tag found on

this one also has a paper
"reminder" tag identifying
the next scheduled inspection,
due March 2, 1957.
-----
This is the "upper" ID tag
changing a BC-348-C to a BC-348-S
model. The"C" model was engineered
less one band and the others spread
out a bit differently. The next ("E")
model has the extra "low" band
added. The "S" model was a
"C" model that was reworked for
the US Army by Belmont Radio
to include "all" bands. Not too
many of these left around.
