Phillips EL3400 & its clone the Peto Scott E2770 is my best guess.

I don't even have a guess but thank you for stimulating my brain. The past 40 minutes of Googling have been fascinating. Please post a pic when this is over.

I would guess something like a helical scanning recorder with 2" or maybe 1" reel to reel tape, perhaps made by Ampex.

Those were fun to erase with a massive degausser (electromagnet) that was kept at the other end of the building from the archive.

Massive tape on massive reels compared we that we have today.

Thanks for the blast from the past...

Philips/Peto Scott VTRs. The Phillips is yellow with model 3400. Peto is not yellow but as best as I can determine, they were the same model with different names on them which was part of the hint.
