Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Bruce, who writes:
Here is some radio equipment from the 1954 movie “Secret of the Incas”, with Charlton Heston.
This was the best shot I could get so far, not having watched the entire film yet. So not very clear, but perhaps this makes it more challenging to identify (and more fun?).
Not the clearest image, but I’m betting some savvy readers can ID this gear in short order, Bruce! Feel free to comment with details.
The bottom piece is Hellicrafters SX -9 Receiver.
Bottom one looks like a Hallicrafters SX-9 from 1936.
This turned out to be the best image of the equipment in the entire movie.
