Rally Radio?

Here goes a picture attempt. If none shows up follow have a look at the links:

What you will see is the underside of the factory Blaupunkt radio. This is a two section radio. On the back of the rearmost pod one board is attached.

Then on the underside of the front/main box there is another added circuit board.

Have any of you got an idea about this modification? There are two 1/4 inch jacks in the dash (Driver/Navigator?) and a roof mounted antenna. The radio powers up but I am unable to tune in much at all. What were the typical broadcast frequencies for the old rally events? This is fron car number 306903S who still sits on michelin tube type radials.

Still puzzled. Anyone care to chime in?

Thanks in advance;

Thanks Roland. It is quite likely a North American mod since the car was likely raced in Eastern Canada and the North Eastern USA. I'm trying to track down the next of kin (car changed hands at an estate sale) so I can learn a bit more of the cars history.
