Comment: The nameplate says: "UHF substandard"  WY-0104 wavemeter"

MODEL 643 UHF Wavemeter #4 WY-0104  MK 1
MODEL 643A UHF Wavemeter #4 WY-0267 MkII
The UHF portion of the radio spectrum spans  300  to 3000 MHz by today's  definition so the word "substandard" could be saying that the wavemeter measures frequencies below 300 MHz.
