Top shelf: Reception Set R106 MK11 (aka HRO 5t) Hallicrafters SX17, Wells Gardner BC348Q, R1155 with a Marconi TF2700 LCR bridge on top.
Bench: Murphy B40D (HRO bandspread coils in front) Hallicrafters SX28 (1-177 valve tester in front) RCA AR88D (Avo CT378 sig gen to the side)
There are others on the bench opposite (not in photo) including Eddystone, Hammarlund, Marconi's, Racal's and various other bits.
Here's the full set of coil packs that I refurbished for the R106 MK11, they were in a bit of a mess when I first got them, resprayed etc and new acrylic windows fitted, also did a front panel refurb on the receiver itself:
The paint job was basically two very thin coats of semi gloss over the original crackle finnish, the window frames and the fixing screws were all sprayed separately.
