Vintage time code generator for an undetermined military aviation application, measuring approximately 5″ x 8″ x 21″, marked on the front panel: "Time Code Generator HI-182A." The control panel boasts four bipolar/unipolar toggle switches, early miniature Nixie tube numeric displays for "Hrs," "Min," and "Sec," and manual rotating time code switches. The time code generator pulls out from its housing, revealing its internal wiring and modules. This type of time code generator was used to provide a precise time code for recording on flight instrumentation recorders often used during flight testing of prototype or modified aircraft.
