New panel for the pit arrived today, a real C-6280A(P)/APX IFF Transponder Set. It's in wonderful condition, very little wear on the plate and knobs and everything works like it should, mechanically at least. I don't have the ability to test it electrically yet, but I have little doubts that it is electrically sound. The switches are really quite beefy, and please ignore the tape in the video, the locking action on the rotaries is very stiff and I needed a third hand.
Attached are a bunch of photos for reference, the TM for the panel, and a video showing the positions of all the various knobs and switches.
Follow the photos through for the full size images on my photostream.
