   Good evening,   
      
   My name is Daniel Urban and for months now I have been trying to identify   
   this object that I and a few others have pictures of. I've been posting   
   all over the internet trying to get answers for its origin, but can't find   
   anybody who knows exactly what it is.   
      
   As far as we know, only 2 of these objects have ever been found, and their   
   origin is a bit of a mystery. Both objects are made of aluminum and weigh   
   approximately 2 pounds. The only writing on the object are the words VOICE,   
   TONE, and RECEIVE (though RECEIVE has been sanded off on both objects).   
   There are no part numbers, information plates, or any other sort of writing   
   on the device. Both objects were found in the United States in California   
   sometime in the early to mid 1980s, likely at an electronic surplus yard   
   like Apex Electronics. Once found, they were used as movie props, which is   
   how we know about them. But nothing is known about what they were before   
   then.   
      
   Our current idea is that they're related to military communications, due to   
   the only wording on the thing being VOICE, TONE, and RECEIVE, commonly used   
   words for transceivers, and it's basic, cold design similar to other   
   military devices. Some more specific ideas we've discussed is the   
   possibility of it being part of a Military teletype RTTY/RATT system, but   
   haven't gotten any definitive proof of this yet. However, I did find your   
   contact information via an RTTY website, so I'm messaging you in hopes that   
   you may be able to help us shed some light on this mystery.   
      
   I've uploaded a handful of pictures of the object: to see the pictures,   
   including dimensions and CAD cutaways of the insides, please check this

   Any help you can provide is very much appreciated!   
      
   Thank you for your time,   
   Dan Urban
