From left to right:
-RadioShack EC-220 (Cat No 65-604). Working.
-Unitrex "Memory-8". Missing battery compartment cover. Working.
-Commodore MM2 "Minuteman 2". Not working. Comes with wall wart.
-TI SR-51-II. Not working. Several years ago I put new nicads in
the battery pack and it worked then. With case, wart & manual.
-Unknown mfg. "4-banger" with LCD display
and incandescent
backlight. Works but has air bubble partially obscuring LSD's 2/3.
This one was written up in "73 Magazine" in the late '70's or
early '80's and was available from Meshna, Poly Paks or a similar
surplus place.
That unit is notable as it was very early use of an LCD. Should date
from around 1972/3.

Somebody OEM'd the electronics for different labels.
