Default Hammarlund Comet

I am trying to identify a Hammarlund radio. The chassis looks like the
Comet
Pro variation 3 but it does not have the two knobs on either side of
the
main tuninbg knob. When the top cover is lifted, there is a horizontal
bakelite panel very close to the front panel above the main ganged
turning
condenser. There are 4 knobs on this panel mounted on the shafts of 4
small
variable capacitors under this panel. The 4 knobs have pointers
attached and
there are scales engraved on the bakelight panel. Another difference
from
the pictures I have of the Comet variations is a relay installed on the
top
of the chassis near the power supply capacitors on the left. The
cabinet is
metal with black crackle finish. If it will help, I can email pictures.
