It is a communication center, most likely part of a large command post. 
In that kind of environment, many communication channels and nets are 
involved. In large centers , especially for HF, transmitters are usually 
placed in the transmitter room(s), the receivers in another room or even 
building, keying and audio goes by remote lines. The receivers have 
separate antennas from the transmitter antennas.  In  a large 
communication center, most transmitters are running on fixed 
frequencies, as each transmitter is dedicated to one circuit/net.

As to the TRC-1 units, they consist of one transmitter and one receiver 
and in that environment each one is set to a different net. The audio 
may be even patched to another control room where the actual operators are.
