I believe this is an early countermeasures receiver used near the end  
of WWII.   The "panoramic" would be defined today as "broadband"  The  
unit would act much like a spectrum analyzer.  The idea would be to  
detect any enemy radar signals across the band.  The unit would scan  
automatically or tuned manually.  The B-29 aircraft carried a couple  
of receivers similar to this if my memory serves.

Hi all
I have a couple of pictures on my website of a Panoramic Receiver.
We are not sure what it is for other than it is from Temco aircraft  
corp.
The reason I am sending this to you is it came from the fellow that I  
got all of the teletype equipment and was not sure what it was used for.
