If I'm not mistaken the Console V was one of the last radios with the
modified 02A chip for 40 channel coverage. It was based on a SBE mobile
placed into a rather lavish wood cabinet with additional controls. Many of
the SBE radios were based on Raytheon chassis.

Hello,

I'm an owner of a SBE Console V. This was SBE's answer to the addition
of channels 24-40. Unfortunately, this rig was fairly expensive
$450-$600 range and wasn't as friendly to modification as it's peer
group of radios.
This is a sharp looking rig even for todays standards and a decent
performer.
