You are viewing a U. Army Corps of Engineers Mine Detector C set from 1954 - Korean War Vintage. This set appears to be complete other than the manual and batteries. This includes an inspection record from a 1957 audit and spare tubes for the electronics package. There is no way to know if this works without a battery set, but for 70 year old vintage electronics I would not recommend using it.
