Hi Bob - The breakdown into categories was just the way Signal Corps put drawings into directories of 100. Tom added a rough descriptor to each directory. I now have a master index here with directory (00, 01, etc.) and file number - you can use that info to get the right file. https://www.navy-radio.com/rcvrs/r390a/drawings.htm
Once I have direct links from that index to each document, retrieval will be more straightforward. I will be changing the "-prelim" filenames as I process the titles.
