what is this red plastic block??

[tracie]

[attachment 21474 this was found in a field by a farmer. no one seems to know what it could possibly be. any help would be appreciated!! It is solid plastic, when held to a light you can see the outline of a black square inside the block. it is 3 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches. it is 3/4 inches thick. it weighs .28 pounds. it was in a pouch that looks like carhardt coat material with velco straps. there are numbers in the bottom : 1202K smaller numbers and 212976 larger numbers. it is not magnetic.
Thanks for helping!!

Its for a key to make it more readily identifiable to touch in the dark

Turn on a radio to an AM-station. Hold the object up to the back, and see if you get static. Object reminds me of a solar radiation collector. If there is a mass encapsulated in inside, please do not puncture it. If you are near a college you might consider taking it by the science dept. Good-Luck & thanks for shareing the mystery!
