FWIW - Looks like a Medium Wave and Shortwave
Active Pre-Selector to Me.



It's a Super 12 converter -- plugs between the car radio and car antenna
and tunes the 10, 11, 15, 20, 40 and 75 meter amateur radio bands as
well as some shortwave broadcast frequencies. I've played with one many
years ago. Doesn't have provision for a BFO, though, so no CW or SSB,
unfortunately.

I had a Multi-Elmac PMR-6 receiver (broadcast plus 160 through 10 meters
with BFO and noise limiter) installed in my 1947 Jeep station wagon ca.
1966 or so (no transmitter, though).
