I've got a couple of these units too. It records about 20 seconds of sound
(at least mine do, I believe there were other models) and plays it back in
a loop at the desired FM frequency. The input power is a 5 pin male DIN
rated 22VAC and 20VA (reads on supply).
Looking at the the plug, from left to right the pinout is as follows 1 4 2
5 3 (with standard DIN numbering, measured with multimeter): (1) 23V
[between 1&2] (4) n/c (2)common (5) n/c (3) -11V [between 1&3 or 2&3]
1 3
4 5
2
I believe this unit only requires 22VAC between 1&2. These units were used
in realestate to give a short blurb about a house. Apparently they
retailed for $11 000 (?) back when the previous owner bought them.

I have a box in a nice well padded soft-case called a
Compu-Voxx.
It was manufactured by Manutronics. It has a removable antenna.
It appears to be some sort of transmitting device for sending
messages. Based on the instructions on the face you record a
message (to a chip I imagine) and then send if the selectable
digital readout frequency is between 88.1 and 107.9.
That sounds like the AM band to me. Could this be some sort of
civil defense emergency device ?
It has a 5-pin DIN plug for power which unfortunately didn't come
with it which is not an unsurmountable problem.
Anyone know what this might be.
