Post More pictures from the family photo album

No TV sets, but still vintage electronics. 2 reel to reel decks (a stereo playback mono 4 track record Sonora, and the 2nd a Viking), a bunch of test equipment with the family cat (Eico o'scope, a TV FM sweep generator, emission tube tester, and I think a Hickok VTVM and a radio tuner. Another is my mom and grandma preparing Thanksgiving dinner next to an Admiral AA5 radio in the kitchen, and a Rec-o-kut turntable in a homebuilt base. Last picture is a shortwave radio project my father built, here he is selecting placement of some trimmers (he finished it and it worked fine). All these were taken around 1960 or so.
