Several years ago, I talked to an older retired tech, that worked at Travler. He mentioned that the tuner was either built by Hallicrafters or their design. I only saw one, that was scrapped.
I remember they had a real deep chassis.
My neighbor had a Travler set, a little newer with a 16TP4 and a one tube continuous tuner. Only set I seen with a one tube tuner, a 12AT7.
