The 32V-3 transmitter is nearly identical to the earlier model 32V-2 from 1949. The 32V-3 incorporated improved RF shielding which included a lidless metal cabinet, re-shaped ventillation holes, and additional meter and AC line shielding. Rack handles were also added to make removal from the cabinet easier. It is also absent the CW sidetone oscillator present in the earlier 32V-2.
