Radio stuff
I have had these for awhile and really don’t know what all of them are. Is there a way of telling by the yellow tag on some of the cables what radio system they will work on and do they have any value? Some of them appear to have the end missing. Thanks

Re: Radio stuff
It looks like you have a variety of things from various vintages. I can help with a few of them.
Some of the cables appear to be from VRC radio setup for something like an RT-524. I have attached a picture with some labels that correspond to my descriptions below.
The speaker appears to be an LS-454 with civilian modified cable. The cable just to the right of the speaker cable appears to be a CX-4723 for a VIC-1 intercom. It should say on the yellow label. Below that appears to be a CX-4720 power cable for a VIC-1 intercom or radio mount. The cable under the phones appears to be a cx-4722 to connect an RT-524 or similar radio to a MX-6707 antenna base. It should specify on the yellow cables.
The CX-4723 is the most valuable of those items and I would be interested in it if you dont need it.
Hope someone can identify your other items!

Re: Radio stuff
The loudspeaker in the last two photos appears to be an LS-166/U instead of an LS-454/U. If you look carefully at the left edge, you can see the knob on the selector switch. And as earlier stated, it has a non-original cord attached to it.
The antenna mast base is an AB-15/GR.
The short double right angle cable at bottom center of the last photo is a CX-1211/U "dogbone" cable for connecting PP-109 or 112 to RT-66/67/68. However, someone has cut off the rubber or metal sleeve that originally covered the wires connecting the two 14-pin right angle connectors.
