Nick,

Looks like an AN/TGC-1:


  ( http://www.navy-radio.com/tty-relay-equip.htm), which normally had 
two M14 reperfs & tape winders mounted on two shelves above the tape 
reader. But in this case, there is an electronics chassis mounted in 
place of the top M14. I don't know what the extra chassis would have 
been for - probably some special Navy mod!
