Tuner? Pulse Code?

This only has phono inputs. I have no connection to the seller but he is in Champaign Illinois where I went to college. I had a professor named D.H. Cooper who was an expert on phono cartridges and quadraphonic sound. I would bet this is from his estate.

I asked the seller whether this was from the estate of Dr. Cooper; he replied:

It is. The only other item I have is the prototype of the time cube delay coil, and a first run time cube control. I have not decided where to market those or if they are donation worthy, to a museum of some sort. Jeff
