I have taken several photos of the inside of the unit. It is beautifully built.

I also discovered a stamped date on the rear panel: "MFP May 1953", twice, once smeared 
pretty badly.

I also found two capacitors in it, Aerovox type E1B6 plugin electrolytics with a date code of 
351, indicating to me that the unit was built sometime in 1951 or 1952.

There are 30 1/2% precision resistors in it, and 20 Allen Bradley pots.

I'll post the photos to http:www.w7ekb.com/Personal/TS306 asap.
