Scenes from AMERICAN GRAFITTI

What radio geeks do...Is they identify every item in the pictures. 

We appreciate George Lucas the producer of the flik, for using a real radio station for these scenes

 Here is another picture from Ron Gurley another old gear fan, he sent me this photo of the WDAE transmitter bldg from the 60's.  The console appears to be part of the G E turnkey package.  Thanks to Douglas Williams out there in Internet land, who recognized my error when I called it RCA stuff.
