Hi all,
I tend to agree that the equipment is a microwave TWT
transmitter. It's possible that the external anode tube on the floor
was used in a pass tube voltage regulating circuit in the transmitter
power supply. Also, there was one manufacturer of such transmitters
who used a large conventional vacuum tube as part of the control
circuitry, but I don't remember who it was.
