Definitely something different
 

Tired of the same old boring Philcos & RCAs? How about a pair of 1964 military monitors from a missile test range?

I kind of find it hard to believe that is 1964 equipment. I would say more like 1954 by the shape of the screens and the shape and look of the cabinet. I guess that the government could have bought from commercial television manufacturers who had ceased the use of older looking crts and related items and were perhaps glad to run a line of obsoletes for them.

Hey, the Pencil Box doors are still on them, must be a little more sturdy than the consumer sets. :D

All kidding aside someone should probably save them!

Trust me.. I work for state government and the words "low bid" comes to mind. Its not uncommon for vendors to Faust of equipment years old.....
