Each of these three objects has a plastic core, wound with several coils of copper wire. One end of each object has a gray wire coming out and the other end one brown wire and one gray wire. Dimensions depend on the position of wires. They are given for one delay line.
The object is associated with Margaret Fox and may come from the SEAC computer.
