Great set!
This set reminds me that as a senior in high school I was invited to participate in an educational program the Motorola was trying to start up. They used the Quasar solid-state chassis as a trainer and had a Heathkit like manual instructing the student on how to assemble it. My lab partner and I were unable to get past the hand wire chassis portion of the assembly process during the two days we had to complete it .
The set had the ability to artificially introduce troubles via switches and defective components.
This was part of a two-day educational conference in Seattle in 1977. It was a great experience and I still have the hand tools that were given to me as payment for my participation.

Motorola was always looking for new talent for their engineering department. Their recruiters were always at MSOE and Marquette school of engineering on graduation day.
They offered tours of the Franklin Park plant and to discuss job openings.
