"Spy Radios"
 Al Klase - N3FRQ 
     There's some controversy as to what is and isn't an agent set.  Here's a radio I own, anyone have information?
 
 
    This set is apparently known as a CMS.  The schematics in the lid of the wooden "painters case" are labled CMS-T and CMS-R.  The frequency charts and the TX and RX bear the (serial?) number 96H.  RX is regen with three triode connected 1T4's.  TX is 2 6V6's in an MOPA arangement.  Master oscillator may also be crystal controlled.  Parts are clearly of late 30's or '40's US manufacture.  No manufacturers name or military ID anywhere.
