Be advised this picture is clearly contrived and erroneously claims at least two pieces of equipment shown are original ... when they clearly could not have been.
1) The key for a (morse) transmitter. Upstairs Bletchley Park (Station X) was a receiving station only, and was decommisioned after the Y intercept stations were established around the country (for diversity reception) to ensure code accuracy. All communications thereafter were by landline or motorcycle courier. No RF transmissions were made from Bletchley Park until the Milton Keynes Amateur Radio Society installed a ham station there in 1994.
2) The Hallicrafters S-85 communications receiver. This was manufactured in the US and not released to the American market until 1954, therefore it is impossible for it to ever been part of original equipment pre or during WWII, at Bletchley Park.
