the third rack from the right contains what certainly appears to be a
National HRO-60 HF radio receiver; the main tuning knob is absolutely
unmistakeable.

As you know, I'm utterly clueless about RF electronics. What format are
those tape units? The spools remind me of 360 drives, but they obviously
couldn't possibly be related. (Come to think of it, they kind of remind
me of radio station logging tapes.)


In addition to these, somewhere in there is a punched tape reader that uses metal tape.
