It looks like a general purpose power supply, not meant for any specific radio set, in order to power 12 and 24V DC radios with 115 AC household voltage. There are units throughout the 1950s to the 1980s that did this, most are heavy beasts because the transformers inside needed to convert the DC to AC.
