Those look remarkably similar to the sets used by Pan Am for their
Clipper service. Can't recall a manufacturer, too bad the tags aren't
legible. One shot has penned notes referring to one receiver as a
'Back up GE' though that could stand for something related to the
circuit it was assigned to, I suppose.

Ditto the other remarks, Nick - more great stuff! Thanks for provide
the high-res enlargements, they really help a lot with the detail.
Those transmitters sporting the 204As are my idea of the perfect
pre-war home brewed rig.
