Possibly Fred. I didn't specify because by the 1980's there were several newer 
types with the same features - some even solid state! They all went away when 
the 500 kHz distress frequency was abandoned in the 1990's.

AN/CRT-3 [aka BC-778] "Gibson Girl" survival radio.  The ones we had in SE Asia 
in the 60's included a rock-bound 8 MHz distress frequency too.
