Pull-down panel with line amps

Patch panel

AM line amps for the dorms*



Right side (top to bottom):

Cue amp for Studio B

Electronics for the Magnecord PT-6 tape recorders, with selector switch for choosing which deck you wanted to use (you couldn't use both, so dubbing was out of the question!)

Two Magnecord PT-6 tape recorders (Click here to see what the tape recorder and electronics looked like in 1953, before they were mounted in the rack).

Tone oscillator

*Mike Muderick comments: "These line amps are the ones I turned up full one day to boost our signal, only to have the telephone company come over to the station and let us know that all the offices on Park Mall were getting the station just fine... on their phones!"
