The fact that the tube is a commercial 15GP22, and not the developmental type C-73599 would lead me to believe that this thing was built after the CT-100 was on the market.
Perhaps a Motorola prototype or test jig? It was found in the middle of Motorolaland. (Although it lacks the copper mounts that went into Motorolas production models.)
