help identify these VTRs

[Mitch Hopper]

Back in the late 1960s when I began my career, I was involved (quite
remotely) with MPATI - Midwest Program on Airborne Television Instruction.
They flew DC-6s at 30k feet with VTRs and two UHF transmitters in a
figure-eight pattern broadcasting in-classroom TV instruction.  Attached are
three photos of the on-board VTRs.  I don't recognize them.  Do any of you?
I'd be interested in finding out.

Boy, talk about the precursor to satellite distribution!!

I was going to make a chemistry joke but all the good ones Argon.
