Thanks.

Edit: I tried to wrap links with and it didn't seem to work.

For some reason I cannot see the linked photos, logged in or not.
The two photos posted don't show enough detail to identify them, other than to say they look like 1950-60's era (post WW2) to me.

The military produced a lot of radios that look alike to the untrained eye.
The RT-68, RT-69, and RT-70 receiver-transmitters are a good example.
They have very similar outward appearance and use some common components, but have different frequency ranges.

Every military radio and each of its components (receiver-transmitter, amplifier, power supply, mount, etc) have a data plate that identify what it is (model, serial number, manufacturer).

If the data plates are missing, a careful examination of any markings, especially around the switches, knobs, connectors, and dials should give enough information to enable identification. Frequency range, for example.

There's several web sites specializing in vintage military radios that have photos to compare for identification.

How many did you find in this "old building"?
The Mother Lode?

There you go!

Thanks Wes.

Hi Ron.

That's all of them. I think a couple items look like power supplies, so probably only a couple actual rx/tx units. I don't know anything about military radios, I'm only into Jeeps. I saw them in an old building when I was outa town and would have to go back and see if they are available. Just wondering if it's worth my time and I could make a few bucks for my trouble. I don't like seeing neat old stuff get tossed out.

It might be worth checking out if they can be had for reasonable cost.

A couple of pieces look pretty bad, but you never know.
There might be a rare and valuable nugget in that pile.
Even carcass bones of some stuff can bring big bucks.

Say 53a1,

Here's a google link that list quite a few vintage Military radio groups.
